The Nigerian supporters stormed the pitch and destroyed everything in their way.

The riot caused the security to fire teargas to control the situation.

It is alleged that Dr. Kabungo was beaten and trampled as fans stampeded their way out of the stadium.

Dr. Kabungo was CAF’s designated Doping Officer for the game between Ghana and Nigeria. His death was confirmed at the hospital.
