    BBC news with Zoe Diamond.

    The opposition candidate in Kenya's presidential election Raila Odinga has rejected the victory of President Mwai Kibaki. Mr. Odinga accused the government of rigging the result and said the Kenyan people would not accept it. His party says it will stage an alternative inauguration ceremony in the capital Nairobi on Monday to declare Mr. Odinga president. Mwai Kibaki was sworn in for a second term immediately after the electoral commission announced he had won by more than 200, 000 votes. Mr. Kibaki called for unity in the country. "I will serve everyone equally, irrespective of the person they may have voted for. I urge all of us to set aside the passions that we're excited by the election process. "

    European Union observers have said Kenya's electoral commission failed to ensure the credibility of the vote. Britain has also expressed real concerns about the outcome of the election. James Robbins has more details. The British government's verdict is clear. It does not believe the Kenyan election was free and fair. A joint statement from the Foreign Office and the Department for International Development calls this a pivotal moment for Kenya, a time when the democratic process and election outcome has to be seen to be fair in the eyes of the Kenyan people. Very pointedly, Britain congratulates Kenyan voters for conducting their vote in an orderly and dignified manner, "but," says the statement, "we have real concerns at the irregularities reported by the European Union and others."

    The party of the assassinated Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto has named her 19-year-old son and her husband as its new leaders. The son Bilawal said he would be the Pakistan People's Party's titular head while his father Asif Ali Zardari would be co-chairman. They said the party would contest the parliamentary elections due in nine days' time. The decision was taken at a meeting in the Bhutto family home in southern Pakistan, from where our Barney Jones reports.

    The plan is that given his age, Bilawal will play a largely ceremonial role under the guidance of his father Asif Zaradari. They'll share the title of party co-chairman. Waiving a copy of a document written by Benazir Bhutto before her death, Asif Zardari said it was an outcome she'd have been happy with. But Mr. Zardari is a highly controversial figure. Allegations that he demanded bribes for government contracts when he was in his wife's cabinet led to his being described in Pakistan as Mr. 10 percent. Whether he and his inexperience son will be seen as a credible team is now one of the big unknowns in Pakistani policies. Pakistan's electoral commission is due to meet on Monday to decide whether to postpone the election because of the violent unrest, which has followed Benazir Bhutto's death.

    This is Zoe Diamond with the latest world news from the BBC.

    The President of France Nicolas Sarkozy says his country will have no more contact with the Syrian government unless it stops intervening in Lebanese politics. France has been leading international attempts to end the political crisis in Lebanon, which has left it without a president for five weeks. Mr. Sarkozy said he wanted a proof of Syria's willingness to let Lebanon appoint a new president by consensus.

    Reports from the tribal Sudanese region of Darfur say rebels operating with troops from neighboring Chad have attacked a number of towns and villages. The Sudanese government described the Chadian attack as unprecedented. Martin Plaut has more. The fighting in western Darfur is described as ongoing and serious. Officials who asked not be named said Chadian armed forces and Darfur rebels of the Justice and Equality Movement are attacking towns and villages in the area of Algenina. The UN has withdrawn humanitarian staff from two towns in the region. The fighting began on Friday with Chadian aircraft reportedly attacking targets inside Sudan.

    Hundreds of Palestinian pilgrims involved in a standoff aboard ferries at the Egyptian port of Nuwaibe have been taken by bus to camps in the northern Sinai. Some 2, 000 Palestinians arrived back from the Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia. They have been refusing to return to Gaza through an Israeli controlled crossing point. The group is said to include some leading Hamas members who fear they'll be arrested.

    The British Cultural Minister is issuing an order that clears the way for an important art exhibition from Russian galleries to go ahead next month. The immunity from seizure order, as it's known, will stop exhibits in the Royal Academy show being claimed by people who say the works were confiscated from their families after the 1917 Russian revolution. Russia had threatened to block the shipment to London of works by artists such Van Gogh and Matisse, fearing they could be impounded by the English courts.
