How can our government criticise this when Gordon Brown undertook a Coup d’état in the Uk without anyone voting for a labour party led by him and consequentially his postion as prime minster or for that matter what about GW and the debacle over dints on ballot papers, how democratic was that, was that a stollen election.

Its about time the press fought for our democracy as hard as they fight for soft targets like Kenya,

Howabout a campaign for a change to our law so that if a prime minister leaves his post then the party in power must go back to the country for a mandate. Dont let brown hide behind a bad law.

Mr. Tim,

Mr. Obama's mother is dead. She passed away from ovarian cancer.

Just leave reckless man(kibaki) who staged a coup in kenya and now he thinks the world is comprised of foolish people like him.

The Kenyan people love Obama. There he has an almost Ghandi like status which is why the leaders were so hurt by his prophetic comments about corruption dragging the country backwards. I hope he finds a day or two to travel to Kenya to personaly ask for calm.

I' from Canada and trying to get all information about this man. By their fruits you will know themsays the Bible ,and I do think that this man is of God for America. He willseek peace in countries as he has in Kenya and this is what America wants .To follow the statues of God ,for ones country to be seeking peace and love for one another, and this is what I believe this great young man is doing.

The allegations by the kenyan opposition of massive rigging were backed up by statements by commissioners of the electoral commission. Proof was also produced by returning officers at various polling stations. What the international community can accomplish at this point is for the international observers who were present, to come forward and report any irregularities that were witnessed so as to pave the way for the court proceedings that will resolve the stalemate. Otherwise innocent kenyans will continue dying.
How can President Kibaki explain the fact that 21 ex-cabinet ministers lost their parliamentary seats in the recently concluded polls and yet he managed to emerge victorious over the opposition?

Mr.Barak Obama is perhaps the best candidate for President of U.S. We hope he will bring about the "change" he istalking about on all front including the foreign policy and goodwill towards the rest of the World. May God Bless him.
