Two Die at Gala Opening of African Film Festival
Saturday February 26 5:42 PM ET


Two people died on Saturday in a stampede ahead of the free gala opening ceremony for Africa's Fespaco film festival in a football stadium in Burkina Faso, festival officials said.

The two people died at the national football stadium in Ouagadougou, the dusty capital of this West African nation which hosts the continent's biggest film festival every two years.

"The official opening ceremony of the 19th Fespaco ... claims two deaths and 15 injured persons as a result of a stampede," the festival organizers said in a statement.

The statement said police blamed the incident on crowd reaction.

When the August 4 stadium opened early in the afternoon, people rushed in, racing to get to the stand which receives most shade from the sun, witnesses said. In the crush, people fell from an upper balcony and two of them died, they added.

"Everyone rushes to go in, mainly because it's free. Nobody pays anything, so everyone wants to come in and watch the spectacle," said a fire officer at the scene.

The accident happened several hours before the gala event which drew 35,000 people.

It was the first time deaths were registered at the opening ceremony for the festival, which began in 1969.

Festival director Baba Hama asked for a minute's silence later as the opening ceremony got underway. It featured a performance by Malian musician Salif Keita and fireworks.

But the fireworks also went wrong, with some heading directly into the crowds. One person was slightly injured and another was treated for shock.

The biennial Pan-African Cinema and Television Festival, or Fespaco, runs from Feb. 26 until March 5. Twenty feature-length movies will compete for the top Etalon de Yennenga, or Golden Stallion of Yennenga, prize.

Crushes at football stadiums are not uncommon in Africa. Last October, a stampede after a power cut in Togo caused the death of three people at a soccer match.


 da sam neki rasista, reko bih nešto kao 'nigra majmuni' il 'lowlife stoka'; ali neću.
umesto toga, zamisliću kako izgleda otvaranje FEST-a u centru sv. save - sa besplatnim, potpuno slobodnim ulazom, i rezultujućim stampedom.
