It took the intervention of Nasa co-principals Kalonzo Musyoka and Musalia Mudavadi to calm the crowd.

Later, police were called in to restore order.

The officers lobbed tear gas canisters at some of the troublemakers.

The rally continued after an over 20-minute delay, with Mr Musyoka and Mr Odinga addressing Nasa supporters.

Mr Odinga later attempted to reconcile Mr Joho and Mr Omar as the incumbentโ€™s supporters yelled โ€œJoho, Joho, Johoโ€, drowning the presidential candidateโ€™s appeals for calm

“Enough…we have heard…this is a national (Nasa) rally. That is a ballot issue… on 8 vote for the candidate you want…,โ€ he said.
