What you need to know:

  • Rodgers Momanyi,50, also got injured in the chaos. When Nation Sport visited him at Hema Hospital in Kisii town,  he was still undergoing treatment.
  • “I had just got out of the stadium after the match when a huge stone hit me on the back of my head. I immediately lost consciousness  and when I came to, I found myself lying on this hospital bed, being attended to by a team of doctors. I was told that I was rushed here by a good Samaritan,” Momanyi said.

Some of the fans who were injured when violence broke out on Sunday at Gusii Stadium in Kisii County during a Football Kenya Federation Premier League match between Gor Mahia and Shabana FC have narrated harrowing tales of close shave with death on the day.

While thanking God for sparing his life, football fan Dominic Mokaya, who suffered a broken jaw has vowed never to again set foot in a football stadium.
