The successful construction of Wajir Stadium in a record three months has shone light to sporting activities in a county classified as arid, located in far northern Kenya.

This is the first stadium in the vast north-eastern region to be built to international standards.

The 10,000-seater facility incorporates a standard football pitch, an eight-lane athletics track, modern changing rooms, VIP lounges, terraces with seating, ample parking and a borehole for water supply.
