Armed with condoms on its familiar battle ground of football activities with footballers and the entire football fraternity that includes community, VAP partnered with Koth Biro football tournament to distribute condoms to players, fans and the community around. The annual Koth Biro football tournament which normally happens with its own vibe of community clubs supremacy is arguably the oldest and the most electrifying tournament that produces the BEST of the BEST of Kenya’s top cream footballers and also serves as the bedrock of Kenya’s professional footballers. The tournament is normally played at Ziwani grounds during December holidays when all football leagues in Kenya are off-season thus creating an opportunity for top league players to reconnect with their parental community clubs in the tournament. Koth Biro which means ‘rain is coming’ in luo tribe is associated with muddy affairs due to the rainy season. The tournament attracts and nurtures new football lads and pools them against well-established footballers. “Am glad to have a set of condoms that I will use and share with my colleagues at home. “Said 19 years old Karani from Opitos football club.
