President William Ruto has ordered a major overhaul of the Anti-Doping Agency of Kenya (ADAK) following warnings from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) regarding non-compliance with international standards. This directive aims to inject professionalism and align ADAK with global best practices to protect Kenya's reputation in sports.

• The order came on Thursday, October 2, after WADA's Compliance Review Committee found multiple gaps in Kenya's anti-doping regulations.
• ADAK was given 21 days to respond to allegations of non-compliance, with the deadline also on October 2.
• Failure to comply could lead to serious consequences, including a potential ban from international competitions, disqualification of athletes, or suspension of funding.
