Two People Die In Kenya Brawl After Bars Reopen

Just a day after bars reopened in Kenya, two people died in a bar brawl in the capital, Nairobi.

The ministry of health’s secretary Rashid Aman on Wednesday said bar owners should follow the guidelines put in place to prevent the spread of the virus.

He termed the deaths “unfortunate” and said the incident was “sad and alarming”.

The bars were allowed to operate until 22:00 local time, an hour before the start of the curfew.

On Tuesday after bars were allowed to reopen, revellers filled pubs and local television reports showed packed bars.

Kenya has 38,529 confirmed cases of coronavirus including 711 deaths.
