The kenyan election 07 has been used by ODM party leadership and its "supporters" to commit Genocide against Communities (Kikuyu's, Kisii's and Kamba's) perceived not to have voted for RAILA AMOLLO ODINGA ODM's presidential candidate.

"Anti Kikuyuism must be reinforced with promise of jobs and economic gains to key players from every community supporting this initiative"- ODM poll strategy 8th September 2007 Action plan (II): KIKUYU ALIENATION.

By now more than 1,000 are dead. In less than 14 days 600 people, from above communities, had been executed and more than 300,000 turned into refugees in their own country, Babies burnt in a church in Eldoret-RUTO's Constituency, Women and children raped - their crime, - right to vote and belonging to "wrong tribes" .

These amounts to attempts to create "Ethinically pure areas" in ODM strongholds which amounts to "ethnic cleansing"- summary executions, forced displacements, expulsions, physical harassment and destruction of property.

"Recalling the need to avoid impunity, the council calls for those responsible for violence to be brought to justice." UN Security Council statement 4th Feb 2008

(Eldoret, January 24, 2008) – Human Rights Watch investigations indicate that, after Kenya’s disputed elections, opposition party officials and local elders planned and organized ethnic-based violence in the Rift Valley, Human Rights Watch said today.

The evidence for these is as:

0. “We have evidence that ODM politicians and local leaders actively fomented some post-election violence, and the authorities should investigate and make sure it stops now.” HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH - 24th January 2008 report - Kenya: Opposition Officials Helped Plan Rift Valley Violence http://hrw.org/english/docs/2008/01/23/kenya17859_txt.htm

This he said is according to "Catholic priest" in charge of the church(The church was not CATHOLIC but ASSEMBLIES OF GOD). Who is this "Catholic priest" he is quoting?

If the standards for determining genocide are the legal one established by international criminal tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, then happenings in Kenya especially in Rift Valley are no exceptions” Ndungu Wainaina- Director International Centre for Policy and Conflict- The standard ,5th January 2008.

5. "I am looking for anyone who can persuade me that the mayhem in western was not premeditated. I am amazed at the surgical and targeted precision with which arsonists worked. I want someone to persuade me that if disgraced E.C.K announced something different the country would be at peace today. I don’t believe that" Barrack Muluka a reknowed Publisher- Standard 12th January 2008 - after saving an 80yr old man from being burnt in Emanyulia Western province (Mudavadi's-ODM's running mate- Home province).

13.When challenged by Kenyan media why the violence is worst in ODM strong holds the ODM secretary General Anyang Nyongo said its not their work to provide security to people.

14. "The name Antonio Teixeira may not ring any bells in Kenya. But in international circles, the chairman of Energem Resources, which bought a 55 per cent stake in the Odinga family’s Spectre International –sends several alarms.

Teixeira has been linked to Branch Energy and Executive Outcomes, two notorious private security-cum-paramilitary companies with a record of involvement in war wealth.Branch Energy, which had mining concessions in Sierra Leone, is 100 per cent owned by Teixeira’s Energem. Remember the "BLOODY DIAMONDS"
