The old man of African politics, former Kenyan president Daniel arap Moi, was swept from power in largely peaceful elections held in Kenya on December 27, but as the euphoria died down, analysts pegged corruption and an end to human rights abuses as some of the most serious problems that would have to be overcome by the new government. Kenya's new leader Mwai Kibaki immediately promised sweeping reforms in the form of free primary education, better healthcare, a stronger economy and an end to corruption - but stressed his National Rainbow Coalition (Narc) party would not engage in a witch-hunt against Moi's displaced Kanu party, the party that ruled the country since its independence in 1963.
