NAIROBI: The two-day protest by Kenyan athletes inside the Athletics Kenya headquarters ended late on Tuesday after the two parties reached an agreement to end the crisis.

The agreement, brokered by the Kenyan Sports ministry, called for an amendment in the Athletics Kenya (AK) constitution to give the athletes more say and for the officials implicated in alleged corruption to step aside.

“We have had a fruitful discussion with the AK official and the athletes’ representatives and accepted that the only way forward was to resolve the issue,” sports ministry official Richard Ekai said.
