The recently refurbished Afraha Stadium is slowly slipping back to its initial poor condition.
A tour of the park by this writer on Sunday revealed that the stadium is slowly losing its recently re-installed beauty.
Afraha is not new to such, it was in a similar condition before being salvaged by President Uhuru Kenyatta's visit in 2015 when it hosted the Mashujaa Day celebrations.
The event saw new stands and washrooms put up. The stands and walls were also painted in Kenyan flag colours to match the new beauty.
However, things are not the same, or any better, as some of the stands are already in a pathetic condition three years down the line.
Some of them have had their roofs loosened by the wind and cause terrible noises whenever they flap and hit against the metal rails, probably as a result of the high speed at which the construction was done.
One stand has been completely unroofed creating a bad picture of the county sports center.
The toilets are another eyesore.
Most of the once beautiful washrooms have been mutilated and their water connections completely cut, forcing users to fetch water from cans.
The taps have been sold in the black market.
The stadium staff has also resorted to disposing unneeded stuff beneath the stands with old and rusty pieces of metals and hurdles being heaped under the viewing areas.
Electric meters supplying the stadium lights have also been left carelessly open, posing danger to players and residents who might get close to them.
