Kenya: U.S. Issues Travel Warnings to Kenya, Guinea
AllAfrica ^ | Sunday, November 6, 2011 | Abiodun Oluwarotimi

The US Department of State has warned US citizens of the risks of travel to Kenya. It advised American citizens in Kenya and those considering travel to Kenyato evaluate their personal security situation in light of continuing and recently heightened threats from terrorism and the high rate of violent crime in some areas.

The Department of State also warned US citizens of the risks of travel to Guinea because the political situation there remains unpredictable.

This replaces the Travel Warning of December 3, 2010, to update information on the political situation and accompanying security issues.

"Although Guinea has been relatively calm since the democratically elected President took office in December 2010, hotly contested elections to the legislature are scheduled for December 29, 2011.

Large crowds of demonstrators representing partisans of various opposition parties are likely to periodically gather at thoroughfares around the capital.

If the scheduled election cycle is delayed or postponed, which seems likely, political rhetoric could turn peaceful demonstrations into violent ones", the department said in a statement obtained by our Correspondent.

The State Department urged US citizens to exercise caution, to be particularly alert to their surroundings, and to avoid crowds, demonstrations, or any other form of public gathering.

Don't worry, I'm sure the gov'ts there are on the job. Guinea (it sez here) consists of ten million people from 24 different ethnic groups.

Zero wants to prevent Americans from looking for his real BC so close to the election because the one he put out is a forgery.
