Update from friend in Kenya

Calm is returning in this country of ours. The international community is really concerned with Kenya. They are pushing for a quick resolution of the political crisis. The parties concerned have not yet agreed on what type of coalition to form. Yesterday the US secretary of state Condeleeza Rice came over to deliver the message of the US president George Bush who is on a tour to Africa but not visiting Kenya.
We hope there will be peace soon. But seemingly the various tribes will not go back to different tribes’ regions.
The economy of this country has fallen rapidly. We are affected so much. The prices of various commodities in the markets and the supermarkets are very high. Hunger is looming. We haven’t been able to purchase fuel to use for cooking. Gas is very expensive. Three times the normal price. We do not know what to do.
