1) "'Last chance' for Kenya constitution" The constitution review was supposed to be well underway last year, but speculation over the president's (Mwai Kibaki) powers has mucked the process, which is just now starting. It is promised to be done in June.

2) "Kenya hunts for missing billions " Authorities in Kenya are looking for atleast $1Bil and possibly as much as $4Bil. The money was thought to be syphoned out of the country and imbezzeled by former president Daniel arap Moi. Some money has been located, but the real task may be actually recovering it.

3) "Economic aid pledges for Kenya" Last month, Kenyan officials said that international donors have pledged up to $4.1 billion. :Finance Minister David Mwiraria said": 'Nearly 60% of all that money will be in grants and 40% is in concessionary loans.'

3 interesting headlines: 1)"Little to celebrate as Kenya turns 40", 2)"US missionary shot dead in Kenya",
3)"Study cuts Kenya HIV estimates"
