MORE KILLINGS IN KENYA EVEN AFTER PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION


Even after presidential election, Kenya remains deeply divided and unstable. Politically motivated killings, hackings and gang rapes continue in the towns and in volatile country districts. The economy is faltering. The latest bigwig to attempt to mediate between the government of president Mwai Kibaki and the opposition Orange Democratic Movement of Raila Odinga is a former UN secretary-general Kofi Anann, who arrived in Nairobi on January 22, 2008. "We have not come with solution. We are here to insist on a solution," he announced. Meanwhile, the mood is getting angrier. Will Kenya break with the worst exccesses of corruption, or else slide into even nastier civil conflict?
