Rare medals at the All-Africa Games

Kenya clinched a rare gold medal in canoeing when Josephat Ngugi and Josephat Ngali won men’s C2 competition over 1,000m as the competition concluded at the Lagoa Chidenduele here in Maputo. It was a good day for Kenyans, who also won silver and bronze medals through Maureen Rono and Diana Natecho, who finished second in K2 (competed over 500m) and Kevin Nabongo and Vincent Oudo who finished third in men’s K2 (competed over 1,000m). Dunford siblings Jason and David continued their medal haul when they won another two gold medals and one silver to increase Kenya’s gold medal tally in swimming to three. read on: http://www.nation.co.ke/sports/-/1090/1090/-/4uk06mz/-/index.html
