In news from Africa, Kenya’s government has reportedly agreed in principle to the creation of a prime minister’s post sought by the opposition. The terms and duties are still being discussed. On Wednesday, Kenyan opposition leaders said that they would begin renewed demonstrations next week if the government does not make progress on writing a new constitution.

ODM Secretary General Peter Anyang Nyongo: “If that does not happen, the ODM hereby gives a notice that we shall immediately call our people to mass action within the next one week so that the voice of people can waken up the PNU leaders who are intent in plunging this country into further quagmire.”
