Former Kenya's President Mwai Kibaki [File image], ushered in economic reforms and a new constitution but failed to deliver on promises to combat graft and his tenure was marred by a disputed re-election which led to deadly violence.

The honeymoon did not last long, and cracks soon appeared in NARC, an alliance of parties opposed to Moi. Kibaki also angered voters by failing to tackle widespread corruption, and his ministers embraced the same corrupt businessmen who had flourished under Moi. Most election observers said the elections were flawed. Odinga called for protests, sparking a deadly police crackdown. Ethnic violence flared in Nairobi’s slums, the Rift Valley highlands and the lakeside city of Kisumu. Families were burned alive in a church.
