Ticket sales for the Africa Championships (CHAN) have resumed at the MOOKH platform following security concerns that temporarily halted match purchases at the Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani.
The website had previously suspended all sales for games held at the Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani, following a breach of security protocols during Sunday's Kenya vs. Morocco game.
As observed by Nairobileo.co.ke, ticket sales for the Angola vs. DRC match scheduled for August 14 at 8:00 p.m. are now available on the platform.
However, attempts to buy tickets for the highly anticipated Kenya vs Zambia clash still display a "sold out" status.
This development comes after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) denied halting the sale of tickets for the games at Kasarani Stadium, noting that reports had been made to relevant bodies for investigation and that appropriate action would be taken following Sunday's security breach.

"CAF is concerned about the security situation witnessed at the Kenya games. We are engaging with the local organising committee and the (Kenyan) government to address security issues,” CAF noted.
On Monday, August 11, the continental football body implemented stringent new regulations limiting attendance to just 27,000 spectators for the upcoming Zambia vs. Kenya fixture, which is set for Sunday, August 17.
The body cited multiple security failures at Kasarani Stadium on Sunday, August 10, during Kenya's match against Morocco.
Beyond the reduced capacity, CAF has mandated a rigorous ticketing system that will only permit entry to holders of electronic tickets, effectively banning the use of thermal or physical tickets for the fixture.
The Local Organizing Committee (LOC), working alongside government officials, will initiate a comprehensive public awareness campaign designed to educate fans about the new safety measures and entry protocols.
"CAF expects full and immediate compliance with these directives. Failure to implement them may result in more serious sanctions, which may include the consideration of alternative venues for future matches of the Host Team,” the statement read in part. "We trust these measures will be applied swiftly to protect competition's integrity, ensure fan safety, and uphold confidence in Kenya's commitment to the Tournament."
