LONDON, Feb 28 (Reuters)

Britain is prepared to host a donors conference for Kenya to help it build on a new power-sharing agreement, Prime Minister Gordon Brown said on Thursday.

He told reporters he had just spoken to former U.N. chief Kofi Annan who brokered the deal and told him: "We'd be prepared in London to host a donors conference to make sure Kenya has the best chance to build upon this power-sharing agreement, to restore tourism (and) get the economy moving again."

Could it be possible for State Hse and Raila's Office to convene a national peace conference bringing together infuential elders from the 42 tribes in Kenya? My thoughts.

Raila's response:

"It would also be necessary to hold meetings with leaders of Kenya's polarised ethnic communities to start the process of reconciliation.

"We are also going to need public lectures in order to inculcate the values of unity among our people," he said.

Tribal difference had been exacerbated by discrimination in giving people jobs in the public sector and this too would have to be addressed, Odinga said.
