Senegal: Inquiry into deadly football stampede [The Morning Call]

More questions than answers left following a deadly stampede in a football stadium in Senegal last week on Saturday, that cost the lives of at last eight people. President Macky Sall has ordered for an inquiry into the matter and that complicit officials will be held accountable for the tragedy.

Sports and cultural activities in the country have also been suspended and will only resume in a month’s time after the end of the election campaigns.
