NAIROBI – Kenya’s fiercely contested presidential election in March, and its disputed outcome, has left the victor, Uhuru Kenyatta, with a daunting challenge: to unite a country riven with ethnic violence and distrust. Although this election was accompanied by far less violence than the previous presidential vote in 2007, the opposition candidate Raila Odinga’s second consecutive defeat has only re-enforced his supporters’ fears that they are once again being cheated out of power.
内罗毕—肯尼亚3月份的总统大选火药味十足，结果也争议不休，这让获胜者肯雅塔（Uhuru Kenyatta）面临极大的考验：让这个饱受种族暴力和不信任摧残的国家团结起来。尽管这场选举到目前为止所伴随的暴力没有2007年的上一次选举那么激烈，但反对派候选人奥丁加（Raila Odinga）连续第二次败选再次激起了其支持者的恐慌——他们又一次被人设计而在权力之争中败北。
