Kirsty Coventry was elected president of the International Olympic Committee on Thursday, securing victory in a high-stakes vote at a luxury seaside resort in Greece’s southwestern Peloponnese.

I’m sure Kirsty is very relieved thar she can now resign her ministerial post. It was like a noose around her neck, having to mingle with all the corrupt and elite zanu-pf cartels.
