How Mombasa hotel came to Paralympian Sururu’s rescue
Kenyan para rower Asiya Sururu Mohamed atFlamingo Beach Resort and Spa at the weekend when the hotel offered to support Sururu's training programme for next year's Tokyo Paralympic Games.
Sururu thanked Flamingo Flamingo Beach Resort and Spa for the support, and also paid tribute to lawyer Mary Kimani who has nurtured her sporting talent since childhood.
“I’d like to thank Victor and Flamingo Beach Resort and Spa for reaching out and supporting my training which has been seriously affected since my boat broke down and the Kenya Navy trainers were withdrawn due to Covid-19,” she said.
Troubled top Kenyan para rower Asiya Sururu Mohamed seems headed for calm waters, after all, following support pledged for her training ahead of next year’s Tokyo Paralympics.
Since booking her ticket for the Tokyo Games at last year’s Africa qualification tournament in Tunisia, Mombasa-based Sururu has been training at Tudor Water Sports, aided by Kenya Navy trainers.
