The call off of the protests is a very good gesture by Odinga and ODM as it is a well-known fact that the protests cause a lot of unnecessary pains and deaths as alluded to also by ODM. This shows that Odinga and ODM demonstrates empathy for the citizens of Kenya despite any anger that the the alleged injustice of the handling of the election might have generated. It is now hoped that the temperature will cool on both sides for the Kofi Annan team to show the way out of the crisis. However, since damage to the country's infrastructure is nothing more than an ill wind, the ODM is implored to tell the members to stay away absolutely from damaging or destroying the country's infrstructure like the railway lines etc. because by the time the dust settles, everybody will have to pay unnecessarily for it and suffer unnecessary inconviniences as a result.
