In this landmark episode of the Africa Sports Report Podcast, host Leslie Koroma Sr. is joined by a distinguished panel—Mary Onyali, Moonira Ramathula, and Dr. Abdul Rahman Lamin—to reflect on the historic election of Kirsty Coventry as the first African and first woman to lead the International Olympic Committee (IOC). Together, they explore the transformative impact of her leadership on African representation in global sports governance, the empowerment of women and youth through sport, and the urgent need for investment in infrastructure, innovation, and inclusive policy frameworks. The panel delves into topics such as athlete mental health, post-career transitions, the role of mentorship, and the power of intergenerational and cross-sector collaboration to drive lasting change. With passion and insight, the conversation highlights Coventry’s presidency as a turning point—an opportunity to reimagine the future of sports leadership across Africa and the world.
