The training centre aims to equip students and youth in the community with skills to establish a career in esports.

The announcement was made at Kenya’s Ministry of Sports Headquarters in the presence of notable leaders in the sports and gaming sector, including the likes of the Secretary General of the National Olympic Committee, the state department of sports, and Kenyan gaming personalities Brian Diang’a, Elias ‘Stylz’ Onchari, Purity Muiruri, and AOC’s Pankaj Budhiraja.
