Britain has expressed its disappointment in 'divisive' politics that could plunge Kenya into chaos adding that politicians should now embrace dialogue.
President Uhuru Kenyatta was declared winner in an election that was widely boycotted with only 38 percent of registered voters turning up following the boycott of Raila Odinga.
But despite the anxiety in the country, Britain now wants Uhuru and Odinga to embrace dialogue as an 'antidote' to deep divisions.
"I call on all Kenyans to come together at this critical moment in an open and national dialogue," said Rory Stewart, the UK's minister for Africa.
He further said: "It is time to reject the politics of hatred and resolve deep divisions. This will lead to healing of the country."
Similar calls were made by Western diplomats with US demanding an immediate dialogue between Odinga and President Kenyatta.
