Stadium rush injures dozens as Kenya inaugurates President Ruto

Several people have been injured as crowds tried to force their way into the stadium where Kenya’s president-elect William Ruto has been sworn in, according to local media reports.

Television footage showed hundreds of people scaling a wall to gain access to the 60,000-seat Kasarani stadium in Nairobi, which was packed with spectators before dawn on Tuesday.
