RAO has expressed his opinion on the crisis so has the AU which recognises Ouattara as the democratically elected president and has indeed gone ahead to suspend Ivory Coast until Gbagbo relinquishes power!What is this crap about bias?UN,ECOWAS,EU and the whole world recognises the true winner of the poll.Why should RAO's opinion be taken any different?
Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today!

The Ivorian crisis is another indicator that Kenyas violence was motivated by other factors and not elections.Factors that we are not willing to face and provide solutions for

Well if that be so, then he can only be anything else but a MEDIATOR!!

May be an "UNDERWRITER"!!!


West African leaders seem to be ahead of the game:

I think in kenya we are so biased, were it EMK or say Bethwel kiplagat or even Kalonzo wiper what would we say. lets look at the bigger picture nobody want Ivorians to take the same rout we did hence much prayers needed and anybody who can mediate to bring that peace is a wellcome.

@ QD, i would have said the same thing.. Are we in a position to advise others yet? We still have issues on matters relating to the accord..Power sharing etc..

I think we would make a better 'support' rather than head the team. I wouldn't mind for example if RAO or BAKS were asked to advise.. but this i am not sure is the best. But like i said i wish RAO all the best and i certainly hope Ivorians can be more sensible than we were.
....above all, to stand.

Ati tribalism!!!
Watu wagonjwa nini!!

Simple logic - If you have taken a position on a matter, you can not be a mediator between the two warring sides!

If you have any integrity, you ought to opt out of any appointment to abitriate on the matter.

But then, who are we talking about!!!
Integrity is a foreign word!

precisely. umed*nya point hapo.
a mediator must be acceptable to both sides so that whatever the results of his intermediary efforts they become acceptable & bidding to both parties.

For us, its the equivalent of the AU having sent Museveni to mediate between RAO and Kibs just immediately after Museveni had congratulated (and thus accepted) our election results in 2007. Or Annan being quoted in Geneva supporting a Kibs win, and then being asked to come mediate between the 2 principals. mafi ya ndege hiyo!

This is a case where the appointing authority has a position and has stated it!!!!!

The 2 sides can always reject any mediator they feel is partisan.Kenya rejected South African Cyrille Ramaphosa due to his closeness to Raila
