- W2951932675 abstract "That a palpable sense of mounting ethnic tensions was beginning to take root in the few months leading up to the 4 March general elections in Kenya, was not in doubt but not entirely unprecedented. Sporadic inter-communal skirmishes did not augur well for an exercise that would see the country elect its fourth president since independence. The worst tribal violence seven months before the elections was witnessed in the Tana River Delta, between the Pokomo and Orma tribes, the one a farming community and the other a pastoralist one. A 2 000-strong paramilitary force was later deployed in the region to prevent further conflict, which could easily spread to the rest of the country. Even so, an escalation of violence left scores of people dead, livestock stolen and property razed to the ground. A total of 115 villagers lost their lives in the clashes. This led to suspicion that a political hand was behind the incident, beyond the dispute for water and pasture, which was the reason offered as the main cause for the conflict. One member of parliament was arrested and accused of incitement. All in all, apart from the violence in the Delta, elections went on peacefully, bar one or two isolated incidents. However, the calm that prevailed was an uneasy one. The manner in which the tallying and announcement of elections results was being conducted not only left a lot to be desired, but was the cause of much apprehension. In many people's eyes this calm was necessary to avert inflaming ethnic tensions that would see the country slide down the slippery road of the 2007/2008 post-poll chaos. Up to 1 300 people lost their lives in the violence that ensued. And to keep this calm, the Kenyan media had to be responsible in its reporting." @default.
