FootballAsbel Kiprop asks Police to sack him before he takes law into own hands
In what might now pass as a desperate plea for help, former Olympic champion Asbel Kiprop has now threatened to take matters into his own hands, as he battles to clear his already tainted image from doping offence.
Kiprop is currently serving a four-year ban slapped on him by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) last week, but maintains his innocence.

And it seems the 1500m specialist is finding it hard accepting the reality: the fact that he will be out of action until late 2021.
In what can only be described as a complete psychological meltdown, Kiprop threatened to use the gun to earn himself 'justice' before pleading with his employer, the National Police Service to sack him from the service.
And although he did not specify on the type of machinery he was speaking of, it is common jurgen among police officers to refer to their firearms as machines.

"I pray to National Police Service to dismiss me now before I use their machinery to earn myself justice. Kindly," the athlete pleaded.
The Administrator Police officer, who has both the Olympics as well as World Championship medals in his cabinet, also wants the IAAF to pick their medals from his house.
"IAAF come take your medals. I don't need any on my house wall," Kiprop said in a Facebook post seen by Tuko.co.ke.

In a desperate attempt to prove his innocence besides the bad press brought about by the sex scandal with the wife of his former pace setter and best friend Andrew Chipsiya, Kiprop has also warned his unsupportive friends to keep off his burrial if he dies.

Football"They can't stand with me now and for me to earn justice but if I die today; they will attend my send off to testify my legacy and preach my legacy!!! Don't welcome them," he added.
In an earlier post, Kiprop flashed his M-Pesa transaction for all to see in another attempt to prove that there was no exchange of cash between him and any Doping Control Officer (DCO) as claimed by IAAF.
Unfortunately, he ended up exposing the finer details of the illicit relationship with Nancy Jeruto, whom he sent close to KSh 1 million, exposing his fearless trait of spending on the opposite sex.
