BBC World Service - Newshour, Kenya: Controversial Repeat Election Will Go Ahead

President Kenyatta has urged people to vote despite opposition protestations

Interviews, news and analysis of the day’s global events.

A controversial re-run of August's Kenyan election - won by the government but annulled due to irregularities - is finally set to go ahead despite protests from opposition leader Raila Odinga. President Uhuru Kenyatta has urged people to carry out their constitutional right and vote. We get reaction from the Kenyan government.

Also in the programme: A UN official has urged the Iranian government to stop harassing employees of the BBC Persian service. And the rock and roll legend Fats Domino has died aged 89.
