Nairobi, Kenya : Former U.N. secretary-general Kofi Annan said Monday the Kenyan government and governing party have rejected his choice to lead mediation efforts in talks to end a deadly post election crisis.
Annan said in a statement that Cyril Ramaphosa, a South African businessman who had played a leading role in talks in his own country to end apartheid, withdrew in the face of reservations by the government and Party of National Unity, and that Ramaphosa’s withdrawal had been accepted with regret, the Associated Press reported.
