Along the dark corridors of Kenya's State House, President Mwai Kibaki was sworn in for the second term after a flawed election results were announced by the Electoral Commissioner Chairman Samuel Kivuitu. The swearing ceremony was witnessed by the Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs Martha Karua, several senior Government officers and Chief Justice Evan Gicheru. These are the people who are supposed to advise the President.

Immediately after the ceremony, the country was thrown into chaos. Approximately 1,500 people died and further 500,000 were displaced in what was 'ethnic cleansing' which was funded and monitored by key politicians and business people. Both ODM and ONU were trading accusations for vote rigging.

Peace was brokered by Kofi Anna between Raila Odinga and Mwai Kibaki in a power sharing deal after intensive pressure from the international community. A commission of inquiry was formed to investigate causes that led to the post election tribal clashes. Justice Waki Report released a month ago mentioned key government officials and ministers who masterminded the slaughter, killings and murder for members of some specific communities. While the ordinary Kenyan was suffering: children thrown in fire, women serially raped, parents being matchetted infront of their children - the three cheif protagonists (Raila, Kibaki and Kalonzo) were sharing power.

The current parliament is trying to stop the implementation of the report because it mentions key personalities in both ODM and PNU. This is what we as Kenyan are opposed to. We don't want immunity extended for criminals. No justice without punishment. No forgiveness wihtout confessions.

To liberate Kenyans, please sign this petition to ask the Kenyan Parliament to implement the WAKI REPORT concerning causes that led to the post election violence which saw 1,500 people killed including women and children, and a further 500,000 misplaced and living in IDPs.

Let's join hands ask President Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila to implement the report. By signing this petition, you agree that the current parliament should rid itself of selfish leaders and join the this Grand Movement to Full Democracy and be part of the remnants to capture Kenya's State House in 2012 election through a fair and free election.
