Police were forced to intervene at the Nyayo Stadium as the highly anticipated Gor Mahia elections nearly descended into chaos on Sunday, April 13.
In dramatic scenes, police lobbed tear gas canisters to disperse a crowd, as two warring factions threatened to derail the event into violence.
It remains unclear why chaos broke out, although reports reaching Kenyans.co.ke suggest some discontented supporters were concerned about how the polls were being conducted.
After some running battles that saw delegates and fans scamper for safety, calm was restored, and the elections proceeded without any other hitches.
