Raila Odinga and Mwai Kibaki have pledged to reunite Kenya

Raila Odinga and Mwai Kibaki have pledged to reunite Kenya.

I hope that a solution can be found that will address the underlying issues.Facilitating the meeting between these two, has to be challenging job.

Odinga has been slammed by Monica Juma of the African Policy Institute for failing to use the law.

Kenyan Jurist has an excellent post on why this position ignores the reality of the matter. I share his view.

Kenya police have now been ordered to shoot to kill looters,arsonists, people blocking roads or carrying weapons in order to stop the violence.

I hope that their approach is evenhanded and that they follow common orders.

The Australian government is staying neutral on Kenya at the moment.
