As a Kenyan abroad but with a heart, family, friends, and property (if they are still there) in Kenya–we are saddened by the escalation of events but hopeful for Good tidings because we are PRAYING. If this fiasco can turn Kenyans who claim to ‘KNOW THEIR GOD’ to turn from their evil ways and seek their God then He (GOD) promises to ‘heal’ our land Kenya. This has to be a genuine individual ‘turning away’ from wickedness.
In this we are together regardless of our geographic locations.

May 2008 loom on Kenya as the beginning of a realization that we are in this together and we need to make it work. The outside world will not do it for us– they have their own principalities to deal with.

Media black out? I am not at all surprised. Kibaki has shown a discomfort with a free press that surpasses Moi’s towards the end of his final term in office.

JUST IN: Heart breaking news from the ground, very credible source reports that Raila Odinga and the Pentagon Team have been arrested. Again, Raila Odinga and the members of the Pentagon Team have been arrested.

(Ory if you email me I can confirm my source)

Please spread the word as the Kenya media is unable to reports this, I repeat, the Kenya media is unable to report this.

They were arrested because they had asked Kenyans to gather at Uhuru park tomorrow meaning monday 31/12/2007 so that they could finish their address to the nation that was cut off midstream by the media ban on live tansmissions.

I gather that the Uhuru park gathering was declared illegal and ODM Pres. Candidate and leading lights were immediately arrested.

Kenyans, Please watch Aljazeera English for more updates from the ground and pray for our country…Pray hard,.

We can see fires in & around Kibera. The police are running around clobbering innocents. As Ory has reported there are media bans. K24 seems to be the only station airing news.

Sad day for Kenya.
