NAIROBI http://www.clippersprostore.com/kids-wesley-johnson-clippers-jersey/ , July 25 (Xinhua) -- Kenya's hopes at the London World Championships were dealt a blow on Tuesday after world 400m hurdles champion Nicholas Bett pulled out with a recurrent right leg injury.
Bett will join the list of athletes who will not defend their titles from Beijing 2015 including Jamaican Usain Bolt in the 200 metres, Ashton Eaton in decathlon, Matej Toth in 50 km walk.
And the absentees in women's events, include Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce in the 100m, Vivian Cheruiyot in the 10,000m http://www.clippersprostore.com/kids-tobias-harris-clippers-jersey/ , Christina Schwanitz in shot put, Jessica Ennis-Hill in heptahtlon and Liu Hong in 20km walk. The World Championships is due from Aug. 4 to 13 in London.
Bett's manager, Jukka Harkonen confirmed that his athlete will give the championships a bye, saying a serious stress fracture on his fibula bone is to blame.
Bett is experiencing sharp pain in his right leg and this was amplified during the Diamond League in Doha on May 5.
"The pain came again after the Shanghai meeting on May 13 and he started treatment in Nairobi," said Harkonen. "We advised him to take leave, but he will not recover in time for the championships."
An MRI scan in Nairobi cleared Bett of any injury http://www.clippersprostore.com/kids-shai-gilgeous-alexander-clippers-jersey/ , but failed to explain the pains, which forced his manager to fly him to Lahti, Finland for further check-up and treatment.
"We examined Bett on June 8 and it was discovered that Bett had a serious stress fracture," explained Harkonen.
Bett would start two weeks of full rest and then another four weeks of pool work before starting easy jogging after six weeks.
He missed the National Championships and Trials on June 23-23 in Nairobi. Bett is expected to resume training next month and hopes to make it to the 2018 Commonwealth Games.
"It's disappointing since my main target was to defend my title," said Bett in Nairobi. "I will be back in good health and stronger for the Commonwealth Games."
Head coach Julius Kirwa said Bett's injury is a blow to Kenya's chances at the London World Championships but believes his void will be filled by his brother Haron Koech, who is part of the Kenya team.

MOGADISHU, July 15 (Xinhua) -- The UN top envoy in Somalia said Saturday that unemployment among the youth was alarming and urged the authorities to provide vocational training and technical skills to young people in the Horn of Africa nation.
The UN Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General (SRSG) for Somalia, Michael Keating said that investing in youth skills is an investment in the present and future of Somalia.
"Unemployment among Somali youth is alarmingly high. Low education levels and limited access to technical skills and vocational training opportunities are a real problem with seriously negative implications," Keating said in a statement issued in Mogadishu to mark the World Youth Skills Day.
According to latest estimates by the International Labour Organization (ILO), Somalia registers one of the highest unemployment rates in the world http://www.clippersprostore.com/kids-patrick-beverley-clippers-jersey/ , with only 33 per cent of its youth employed.
Keating said one of the main reasons for youth unemployment is the mismatch between the skills that the youth can offer and those in demand by employers.
"This mismatch not only impacts the economy, but also hampers the transition to a more equitable, peaceful, prosperous and inclusive Somalia," the UN envoy said.
He said resources are very limited so the challenge is enormous, warning that failure to address it marginalizes young people http://www.clippersprostore.com/kids-marcin-gortat-clippers-jersey/ , which make them more vulnerable to exploitation and radicalization.
With improved education, Keating said, relevant skills and competencies, and access to decent jobs, young people can help accelerate progress on the 2030 Agenda, fostering a prosperous http://www.clippersprostore.com/kids-louis-williams-clippers-jersey/ , sustainable and equitable environment for all.
The UN is currently investing 17.5 million U.S. dollars on programs that provide vocational and technical training to Somali youth, equipping them with the skills needed in sectors such as health, construction, mechanical engineering, agriculture and fisheries as well as entrepreneurship.
"These programs are a great investment and extremely valuable, but cannot alone meet the huge demand in Somalia http://www.clippersprostore.com/kids-jerome-robinson-clippers-jersey/ ," Keating said and urged Somalia and its partners to invest more in technical and vocational training of young people.
