Defeat for Democracy.

Just spoke on phone to cousin in Nairobi, who was with a group of women trying to make their way to Uhuru Park. Despite reports I got half an hour that the rally had been unbanned, at around 2:30 PM in Nairobi the word got out that the rally had been postponed to Tuesday, and people have returned home. My cousin also urged the world to turn its spotlight onto violence against women and children, who are made particularly vulnerable in the post-election unrest.
