Uhuru Park was filled with Kenyans curious to hear what Archbishop Desmond-Tutu would have to say. The Nobel peace laureate hoped he might be able to use his influence to curb the violence.
At the start of his visit here, he recalled violence before the ground-breaking elections in South Africa in 1994. "We have been there and we know how bad our sisters and brothers in Kenya are feeling," he said.
Uhuru - or Freedom - Park has been much in the news this week as the place where supporters of Orange Democratic Movement leader Raila Odinga wanted to demonstrate that they consider him to be the winner of the disputed-election.
