President Uhuru Kenyatta has heaped praise on the Kenya Sevens Rugby team for a commendable job done in the Dubai 7s.
His praise comes despite the Shujaa team losing to New Zealand in the main cup quarters.
"That was close. Well played Kenya Sevens, you lived to your name Shujaa Pride. Well done," the president said on Twitter Saturday.
Shujaa were beaten 14-12 after New Zealand came from behind to complete the second half with a lead.
Earlier, Kenya had defeated Uganda to storm the quarters.
