Mar 20, 2008 Kenya: Post-Crisis Agendas
"The Kenya National Dialogue and Reconciliation between the
political parties provides Kenya's leaders with a historic
opportunity to step back from the brink and to reform and
establish institutions that can help build long-term stability. ...
However, challenges remain in ensuring that the institutions
created actually deliver accountability for recent and previous
violence, correct injustices ignored by previous administrations,
and tackle the systemic failure of governance that gave rise to
the recent crisis." - Human Rights Watch
Feb 1, 2008 Kenya: More Pressure Needed to Stop Violence
"The deep frustrations that are felt on all sides of the Kenyan
divide are understandable. There is no doubt that much more work
remains to be done for Kenya to become a more equitable and
democratic society. But Kenya has come too far to throw away
decades of progress in a storm of violence and political unrest. We
must not look back years from now and wonder how and why things
were permitted to go so horribly wrong.- Senator Barack Obama, on
Kenyan radio, January 29, 2008
Jan 8, 2008 Kenya: Causes and Solutions
"It is the Kenyan People Who Have Lost the Election," headlined
Pambazuka News in its special Kenya election edition on January 3.
"But the real tragedy of Kenya," the editorial continued, is that
the political conflict is not about alternative political
programmes that could address ... landlessness, low wages,
unemployment, lack of shelter, inadequate incomes, homelessness,
etc. ... [instead] it boils down to a fight over who has access to
the honey pot that is the state. ...[citizens] are reduced to being
just being fodder for the pigs fighting over the trough."
