THE UN Security Council welcomed the new power-sharing agreement in Kenya and urged President Mwai Kibaki and opposition leader Raila Odinga to implement it "in full and without delay".
Odinga and Kibaki struck a deal that will give the opposition leader a new job as prime minister. Kibaki said he is reconvening parliament March 6 to begin work on the needed constitutional changes.

Odinga accused Kibaki of stealing a December 27 vote, and their dispute sparked fighting that killed more than 1,000 people and tarnished the reputation of this once-stable east African nation.
