He was just back from the Continental Championships in Nigeria and met with an accident near Nandi County in west Kenya. This is a big loss for Kenya and why only Kenya for the whole world it is a big loss as the world has lost a legend athlete.
Kenya issued a statement following the news. The statement read: “We regrets to learn of the sudden demise of one of our top athletes, the 2015 400m Hurdles World Champion #NicholasKiplagatBett who represented Kenya in the just concluded Africa Championships.
“Our condolences to his family and the entire athletics fraternity.”
