Kenyan joy as world fails to end

Residents of Nyandarua village in central Kenya are full of relief, after a local sect's doomsday predictions failed to materialise.

The House of Yahweh sect had predicted that the world would end before 12 September and had started building bunkers in case of nuclear war.

However, after being arrested the sect's leaders disappeared. One blamed the media for destroying their image.

A BBC correspondent said some locals anxiously awaited the deadline.

Then when nothing happened, they started laughing.
