Jamal was not the only victim; there were multiple reports of theft and mugging along the roads near Nyayo Stadium after the match.

Journalist Kevin Teya remarked, “There have been many reports of muggings at Nyayo National Stadium. Please be cautious.”

Additionally, it was reported that motorists lost vehicle parts, such as wipers, side mirrors, and radio antennas, as thieves took advantage of the limited police presence.

Football Fans Force Their Way into Nyayo Stadium

Some social media users attributed the muggings to the chaotic situation prior to the match, where a group of fans forced their way into the stadium without purchasing tickets.

“Football fans forced their way into Nyayo Stadium moments before the highly anticipated 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier between Harambee Stars and Gabon. I only hope there won’t be muggings afterward,” said social media user Samson Waweru.

Another unfortunate incident occurred when Mumias East MP Peter Salasya was forcibly removed from the stadium by a group of men.
