No peace, we die

KISUMU, 26 February 2008 (IRIN) - Roselyne Anyango, 32, is an HIV-positive single mother who moved to Naivasha five years ago to work on a flower farm. When violence broke out after December’s disputed elections, she and her two children, aged 13 and six, were forced to flee. Her elder child has special needs.
