Starlets depart for France after pay dispute resolved

The national women's football team, Harambee Starlets, will travel to Miramas, France, tonight after the Ministry of Sports settled their outstanding dues. The players had staged a protest at Football Kenya Federation headquarters, Kandanda House, demanding payment before departure. Elijah Mwangi intervened and handed the team KSh10 million that had been pledged by President William Ruto during a meeting at State House Nairobi on Monday.
