Raila Odnga, the opposition leader contesting the re-election of political rival Mwai Kibaki, has ruled out any power sharing deal with the latter and has instead insisted that he should resign and pave way for a re-run.

Despite expectations that Annan would help end the political impasse that has engulfed Kenya after the December elections, pressure is mounting for President Kibaki to concede defeat and respect the will of the people.

A cross-section of Kenyans have vowed to press to go on with mass action and other alternative means to force the President out of power. Last Thursday, the two leaders shook hands in what seemed to be a gesture of people.

However, the ceremony at the office of the president has not made things better. This weekend was the worst as more people were reported dead in a systematic slaughter of innocent Kenyans in what has now become another Africa's genocide in the making.
