About 30,000 people have packed a stadium in Kenya's capital, Nairobi, for the state funeral of the country's longest-serving President Daniel arap Moi, who died last week aged 95.
Rather than mourning, many in the crowd are celebrating Mr Moi's life.
He was a towering figure who dominated Kenyan politics during his 24-year presidency.
Critics saw him as an authoritarian ruler, while allies credited him for maintaining stability.

Mourners began gathering at the Nyayo National Stadium before dawn to pay their respects, some of them wearing traditional regalia.
