Eight Kenyan politicians have been jailed for hate speech, in the latest sign of rising political tensions a year ahead of elections.
The politicians are accused of inciting their supporters to violence in public rallies and press conferences.
It follows weeks of deadly protests against the electoral commission, which the opposition believes is biased towards the government.
