Omanyala & Atuka will be Team Kenya’s flag bearers during the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Africa’s fastest man in 100m Ferdinand Omanyala and Malkia Strikers captain Triza Atuka, have been selected as Kenyan flag bearers at the opening ceremony of the 33rd Paris Olympic Games this Friday along river Seine.
After making history by qualifying for the semifinals at the Tokyo Olympic Games, Omanyala is returning to the Olympics for the second time.
He will join Kipchoge Keino (1964, 1972), Patrick Sang (1992), Paul Tergat (1996), Kennedy Ochieng (2000), and Grace Momanyi (2008) as the sixth Kenyan flag bearer in the athletics category.
Atuka, the Kenya National Volleyball Captain, will join Omanyala in leading the Kenyan team as they join over 200 other countries at the historic Nations Parade on Friday.
The Olympic Games officially get underway with the opening ceremony.
