Three-time world record holder Henry Kirwa has turned to logging in a bid to make ends meet as coronavirus pandemic restrictions bite hard. The Nandi County-based Paralympian observed that the trees are his only easily disposable assets as he fights to put food on the table for his family. In this coronavirus period, we are hit hard compared to other athletes or people around the world because of our disability,” said Kirwa. I have represented this country for many years, winning medals but we are never appreciated. This is the right time for the government to extend a helping hand to us,” said Kirwa.
