Voting at the Tudor Village Hall polling station in Mvita, Mombasa County, was temporarily disrupted after chaos erupted following claims of vote fraud.

Voters supporting different political camps hurled stones at each other before police intervened. A National Youth Service (NYS) officer was injured in the chaos and was rushed to hospital for treatment.
