This report is Confirmed false and is of High Priority. Here is why -
There is no evidence of rioting in Kondele, though there was some disorder. There is a polling centre at Kondele fly over and IEBC officials were trying to set up the voting stations while some residents were dancing and merrymaking at the same site, which disrupted the preparations. The police then used teargas to disperse the crowd. This occurred around midnight. This was verified through firsthand accounts of the incident.
