[kictanet] President Obama's Message to the People of Kenya

[Baiju Shah]

Hey Listers,

It is upto the Kenyan people to assure the rest of the region and the Global community, a message like this indicates the US is expecting the worst on this, British have asked all to be away during the elections period.

Best Regards,
