A police officer attached to the Turbi police station in Marsabit County has confessed to being depressed, resulting in many failed suicide attempts.

Despite displaying obvious indications of depression, the cop, who identified himself as Kiprop Rop, resented the fact that no one was concerned about his precarious situation.

"I have been suffering from depression and I have been trying to kill myself. Nobody wants to hear me, nobody wants to help me. I am really depressed," Kiprop said

Rop lamented the lack of brotherly love among his coworkers as he recounted his tragedy, a fact that has prompted him to seek assistance from any well-wisher.

"I am requesting everyone who is ready to help me to cope up with depression to come to my rescue." he added.

With a sorrowful expression on his face, the cop described how he had attempted to take his own life several times, all of which had failed.

"Suicidal thoughts have been coming severally. Even today, I have been trying to kill myself. Please help me. I do not want to die," the officer added.

Kiprop expressed his love for his family and described how difficult life would be for his pregnant wife if he died right now.

He stated his readiness for any assistance that would aid him in taming the situation.

"My wife is pregnant. I do not want to leave them behind. I am suffering a lot. I have not slept for the last five days. Please help me, I am ready to be helped," he said.

The National Service Commission (NPSC) established a program in September 2021 to monitor and identify officers who require immediate medical assistance.

The commission, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, plans to fully implement the program aimed at addressing mental health issues.

Youtube Deletes R. Kelly's Accounts Following His Conviction for Sex Trafficking

Euronews [Photo/Courtesy] YouTube has taken down R. Kelly's official channels following his conviction for sex trafficking charges last week. The jury said that the R&B artist took advantage of his status to exploit unsuspecting women and young girls. The gullible folks were converted into Kelly's sex slaves rather than obtaining much-needed assistance with their music. His two channels had over 5 million subscribers. His two accounts, RKellyTV and RKellyVevo, were permanently suspended for what YouTube termed as "violation of its terms of service." The move bars the singer from owning new channels or creating any YouTube content. In an official statement issued by YouTube's vice president, Nicole Alston, the decision was reached based on the possibility of Kelly's misconduct to cause widespread harm. "Egregious actions committed by R. Kelly warrant penalties beyond standard enforcement measures due to a potential to cause widespread harm," Ni...

Image
Photo/Courtesy The University of Kabianga was earlier today closed after students took to the streets to demonstrate for what they termed as unjustifiable fee increment. In a memo released by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor Elijah Omwenga, all the students were instructed to vacate the school premises by 3:30 PM EAT. The comrades who had just reported back to school were perplexed to learn of the 40% fee increase, something that didn't sit well with them. As they spoke to the media, the students expressed their displeasure, arguing that it is improper to consider such decisions. "We are going to unravel the unscrupulous expenditure that is going on in Kabianga," one of them remarked. Completely irked by the decision, the students who were breathing fire in front of the camera bitterly sought the justification behind the fee hike. "We are so tired. We are really tired as the comrades of the university of Kabianga. The fee is being hiked and the service delivery is so medi...
