On Saturday, January 18 questions emerged over Nyayo Stadium Gymnasium’s viability following crowd trouble during the FIBA Afrobasket pre-qualifier final between Kenya and South Sudan.
The clash which was scheduled to kick off at 6:30 pm local time had to be delayed for more than an hour after a significant number of fans stormed in the court as the teams warmed up.
The crowd, which seemed to increase in size flooded the gymnasium in minutes, forcing players from both teams to vacate the court.
Here are some photos:
FIBA officials had to clear the court for the match to resume.
