His comment is more of a general commentary that east African countries are notorious for doping.
Like, if we find out the top two finishers here doped very few would be surprised.
That said - it's still an amazing accomplishment.

He invited the AIU to test him before Berlin and Adidas also paid. > Determined to prove he is competing clean, Adidas provided $50,000 (£36,900) to the Athletics Integrity Unit, the sport's anti-doping body, to frequently test Sawe over a 12-month period. > That began with a reported 25 out-of-competition tests in the lead-up to Berlin in September, continuing at a similar rate as he prepared for London. > Sawe said on Monday: "It's very important to me because it gets out the doubt in my career of athletics and yesterday's performance. > "It shows Sabastian Sawe is clean. It shows running clean is good, and we can run clean and we can run faster.
