Four individuals lost their lives in Kenya's capital when law enforcement shot and deployed teargas to disperse enormous assemblies at a stadium where political figure Raila Odinga's body was displayed for homage.
Odinga, who was a major force in Kenyan politics for decades, died on midweek at 80 years old while receiving medical treatment in India.
He fought tirelessly for multi-party democracy, and we experience those freedoms today because of his efforts.
Numerous followers assembled on roadways from dawn, with mayhem occurring when enormous throng broke through a barrier at the capital's primary venue, causing armed forces to fire in the air.
Earlier in the day, numerous of mourners temporarily invaded the city's air terminal, halting a ceremony where President William Ruto and dignitaries were welcoming Odinga's remains with military honors.
This event prompted a brief stoppage of aviation services.
Assemblies also flooded surrounding thoroughfares and tried to enter the legislative building, where the administration had initially planned the open visitation.
Although primarily recognized as an opposition figure, Odinga became head of government in 2008 and also established a alliance with Ruto last year in a public service characterized by shifting alliances.
He inspired strong loyalty among supporters, particularly in his Luo community based in the country's west, many of whom maintain he was prevented from obtaining the nation's leadership by vote manipulation.
Many of Odinga's supporters, who were not living in 1991 when Kenya established itself as a pluralistic political system, expressed respect to Odinga's efforts as an activist.
