This follows the revelation in Beijing World Championships that two of Kenya's sprint runners -- Joyce Zakary and Francisca Koki -- tested positive to
banned substances during their in-competition tests done in the Chinese capital.
AK CEO Isaac Mwangi said it makes the need for the country to have a functional sample testing laboratory more urgent.
Currently only Johannesburg has a laboratory accredited and sanctioned by WADA to handle dope samples tests in Africa.
"We need to have a testing centre in Nairobi as soon as possible. That way, we will be able to increase the frequency of doing tests in Kenya," Mwangi said
Saturday in Nairobi.
Kenya government, with help from China Adidas AlphaBounce Beyond Hombre Negras Blancas España , Norway and WADA, has promised to have a functional centre in Nairobi before the 2017 World Youth
Championships, which will be held in Nairobi.
"AK has been at the forefront of identifying doping as a problem and in the past two years; it devoted a lot of time and resources to combat the vice with
the assistance of IAAF, the World Anti-Doping Agency Adidas Swift Run España , Kenyan Government and international partners from China and Norway," said AK acting President Jackson Tuwei.
But with the nabbing of Zakary and Koki, two average sprinters in Beijing, the need for the laboratory is more urgent as it offers a reality check for the
country Adidas Deerupt Runner España , which has dominated the middle and long distance races and has successfully made a niche for itself in the sprints and field
events competitions.
"Athletics Kenya can confirm that it has been informed by the IAAF of the positive tests returned by two of its athletes, Koki and Zakari. The athletes
have accepted the provisional suspension," said Mwangi.
"Athletics Kenya has already met with the IAAF and the athletes involved, and has begun investigating the situation which led to these results and appropriate
follow-up action will be taken in Kenya Adidas Hender Scheme España ," he said, adding that Athletics Kenya will provide full support and cooperation to the IAAF during results management process.
