NAIROBI : Two people were killed and more than 160 others were injured in a stampede during the state funeral of Kenyan opposition leader Raila Odinga. The aid group Doctors Without Borders confirmed the death toll and injuries from the incident at Nairobi’s Nyayo National Stadium. Heavy security was deployed at the funeral for Odinga, who commanded a passionate following across the East African nation. Kenyan broadcaster NTV reported that some crowd members surged forward to view Odinga’s body, causing a crush. A Kenya Red Cross spokesperson said their teams were providing treatment and evacuating the injured from the scene. Doctors Without Borders stated the injuries included blunt trauma and fractures from the melee. These fatalities followed three deaths on Thursday when security forces fired shots at mourners who breached a gate during a public viewing of Odinga’s body. The former political prisoner was a major figure in Kenyan politics for decades and ran unsuccessfully for president five times. Odinga died aged 80 on Wednesday in India, where he had been receiving medical treatment. Thousands of mourners at Friday’s service waved white handkerchiefs and danced under large banners with Odinga’s portrait. Others blew whistles and vuvuzelas in honour of the man they referred to as “Baba,“ meaning father in Swahili. Kenya President William Ruto attended the service which included full military honours. People have taken to the streets to pay their respects since early Thursday, with mourners storming the country’s main airport when the plane carrying his body arrived. That airport incident prompted authorities to suspend all flights for two hours. Odinga’s body will be taken for burial on Sunday in his homestead in western Kenya, where he commanded deep devotion among members of his Luo tribe. Many of his supporters believe he was cheated of the presidency by electoral fraud during his political career. Though mainly known as an opposition figure, Odinga served as prime minister in 2008 and struck political pacts with both former President Uhuru Kenyatta and current President William Ruto. – Reuters

WASHINGTON : Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy visited the White House on Friday to request Tomahawk missiles from US President Donald Trump. Trump’s focus on his upcoming meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Budapest raised concerns that Zelenskiy might return empty-handed. The US president nodded when asked by reporters if he could convince Putin to end the war in Ukraine. Trump told reporters before their private lunch meeting that things were progressing well with Russia. Zelenskiy highlighted the difficulty of securing a ceasefire and stated that Ukraine wants peace while Putin does not. Ukraine’s leader specifically requested Tomahawk missiles during their discussions. “We don’t have Tomahawks, that’s why we need Tomahawks,“ Zelenskiy told Trump and his administration officials. Trump responded that they would discuss the missile request but preferred that Ukraine wouldn’t need them. The US president portrayed himself as a mediator who believes both sides want a peace deal. Trump announced his summit with Putin following a more than two-hour phone conversation about Russia’s war in Ukraine. Their August summit in Alaska ended early without major breakthroughs, raising questions about this new meeting. The Kremlin indicated that much needed resolution and the summit might occur later than Trump’s suggested two-week timeframe. Trump’s conciliatory tone after speaking with Putin raised concerns about immediate assistance for Ukraine. European officials expressed fears about any potential deal that might primarily benefit Moscow. An EU spokesperson welcomed the talks if they could help achieve peace in Ukraine. Trump complimented Zelenskiy’s appearance during their meeting, noting his stylish dark suit jacket. The US president has campaigned for the Nobel Peace Prize and wants to add Ukraine to his conflict resolution achievements. Russia has made some territorial gains in Ukraine this year despite Ukrainian claims that their offensive failed. Putin stated that Russian forces captured nearly 5,000 square kilometres of Ukrainian territory in 2025. Both sides have escalated attacks on each other’s energy systems in recent months. Russian drones and jets have occasionally strayed into NATO countries’ airspace. The White House had recently shown increasing frustration with Putin and considered new support for Ukraine. Zelenskiy noted that Putin was playing for time by resuming dialogue when hearing about potential Tomahawk transfers. Ukrainians expressed limited optimism about Zelenskiy’s talks with Trump given previous disappointments. Analysts viewed Putin’s outreach as a tactic to delay US weapons transfers to Ukraine. Max Bergmann from the Center for Strategic and International Studies called Putin’s move a stalling tactic. Mykola Bielieskov from Come Back Alive said Tomahawks would help pressure Russia but weren’t a complete solution. Trump has regularly threatened action against Russia since taking office but often delayed measures after Putin talks. – Reuters

LONDON : Britain’s Prince Andrew said on Friday he would give up using his title of Duke of York following years of criticism about his behaviour and connections to the late U.S. sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The reputation of Andrew, the younger brother of King Charles and second son of the late Queen Elizabeth, has taken a battering in recent years, most notably because of his links to Epstein. But a court ruling last year also revealed that one of his close business associates was thought by the British government to be a Chinese spy. Andrew at the time said he had stopped all contact with the individual. In a statement on Friday, Andrew said “the continued accusations about me” distracted from the work of his elder brother King Charles and the wider work of the British royal family. “I have decided, as I always have, to put my duty to my family and country first. I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life,“ Andrew said. “With His Majesty’s agreement, we feel I must now go a step further. I will therefore no longer use the title or the honours which have been conferred upon me. As I have said previously, I vigorously deny the accusations against me.” Andrew, 65, the eighth-in-line to the throne, was once regarded as a dashing naval officer and served in the military during the Falklands War with Argentina in the early 1980s. But he was forced to step down from a roving UK trade ambassador role in 2011, before quitting all royal duties in 2019 and then was stripped of his military links and royal patronages in 2022 amid allegations of sexual misconduct which he has always denied. That year, he settled a lawsuit brought by Virginia Giuffre, who died in April, which accused him of sexually abusing her when she was a teenager. Andrew has always denied her account, which has returned to prominence in the last week with the release of her memoirs. In her book, she said “entitled” Andrew believed it was his birthright to have sex with her, according to extracts published by the Guardian newspaper. BRITONS SUPPORT STRIPPING ANDREW OF TITLES According to a recent poll by YouGov, 67% of Britons supported stripping Andrew of his remaining royal titles, with 13% opposing the move. A separate survey found only 5% of respondents had a favourable view of him. Andrew, who had already given up being called “His Royal Highness”, still remains a prince and will continue to live in Royal Lodge, a large property on the estate surrounding Windsor Castle, a historic royal palace to the west of London. However, he will no longer attend the annual royal Christmas get-togethers at Sandringham, the royal home in eastern England. His daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie will be unaffected, but his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson will also no longer be known as the Duchess of York. In September, several charities cut their links to her after she described Epstein as a “supreme friend” in an email three years after he had pleaded guilty in 2008 to a state prostitution charge in Florida and agreed to register as a sex offender. In addition to the ties to Epstein that dogged him, Andrew’s business relations have also proved problematic. Last December, court documents revealed that a Chinese businessman who had been authorised to act on Andrew’s behalf to seek investors in China had been banned from Britain on national security grounds. The documents revealed the businessman, who the British government believed to be a spy, had been invited to Andrew’s birthday party. - Reuters
