The National Assembly Committee on Sports and Culture has called for strengthening anti-doping systems to protecting the integrity of Kenyan athletics and safeguarding the reputation of the country's athletes on the global stage.

Speaking during a meeting with the Anti-Doping Agency of Kenya (ADAK) to review the country's progress in complying with international anti-doping standards set by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) said Kenya has faced increased global scrutiny in recent years due to a rising number of doping violations among its athletes.
