[Channel 4 News] Kenya violence still spreading 2008.01.29

By: Lucy Manning, Nick Paton Walsh.

"Inter-ethnic violence in Kenya continues, despite the efforts of former UN chief Kofi Annan.

The accompanying report contains disturbing images

Former UN secretary general Kofi Annan has launched talks between Kenya's political rivals, insisting that he was confident the post-election crisis could be resolved.

Presdent Kibaki called it a "defining moment" for his country.

But the inter-ethnic violence is still spreading. Some of the worst clashes have taken place in the Rift Valley, where more than 100 have died since Thursday.

In Naivasha army helicopters fired rubber bullets at a crowd of Kikuyus threatening to attack Luo refugees trying to flee town.

At least two people were killed in the opposition stronghold, Kisumu. And in the capital, Nairobi, at least seven people were killed during fighting in Kibera slums after an opposition MP was shot."
