Two months after Kenya's bitterly disputed presidential election, the government and opposition leaders remain deadlocked.

Chief negotiator Kofi Annan now admits the two sides appear to be unable to resolve their differences.

More talks are scheduled for Tuesday, but the opposition's already threatening more demonstrations on Wednesday.

The fear is Nairobi's slums - the biggest in Africa - may become a flashpoint once more for tribal violence.

John Cookson joins the men who run Kenya's toughest streets.

  • Africa must take ...

    Africa must take care of Africa! No more UN intervention. Africa must stand on their feet and deal with their issues.
    Let all the world witness what Africa does or does not do. Let Africa alone be responsible for it's strength, it's weakness, it's growth or death.
    When outsiders intervene, they are blamed. No one learns or grows. Now is the time for Africa to walk alone as it has always said it wanted to. Let the world watch & witness.
