Disaster Hits as 4 Lose Lives During Memorial for Kenya's Political Figure Raila Odinga
Four people were killed in Kenya's capital when armed personnel shot and used teargas to break up massive crowds at a stadium where statesman Raila Odinga's body was on public view.
Political Leader Honored
Odinga, who was a significant presence in the nation's political landscape for many years, succumbed on Wednesday at 80 years old while in hospital care in India.
He fought tirelessly for democratic systems, and we benefit from those rights today because of his struggle.
Turmoil Breaks Out at Stadium
Thousands supporters congregated on roadways from dawn, with disorder occurring when enormous throng forced open a entrance at Nairobi's main stadium, leading to military personnel to shoot skyward.
- A pair of persons were shot dead at the venue
- Casualties later rose to 4
- Many persons sustained injuries
- Police used teargas to scatter countless attendees
Airport Disruption and Government Building Confrontation
Earlier in the day, countless of supporters briefly stormed the capital's aviation hub, halting a official event where the head of state and other officials were welcoming Odinga's body with armed forces tribute.
This event caused a temporary halt of aviation services.
Groups also flooded adjacent streets and tried to enter parliament, where the administration had originally scheduled the public viewing.
Political Impact and Ethnic Backing
Though mainly known as an government critic, Odinga served as senior minister in 2008 and also established a political pact with the leader last year in a career characterized by shifting alliances.
He commanded passionate devotion among adherents, notably in his cultural background based in the country's west, many of whom contend he was deprived of the nation's leadership by vote manipulation.
Countless of Odinga's followers, who were not yet born in 1991 when Kenya transitioned to a multi-faction governance, offered homage to Odinga's contributions as an campaigner.
