Fighting has erupted in another town in western Kenya, say reports.
Reports suggest at least nine people have been killed in brutal inter-tribal bloodshed in Naivasha. Gangs of youths blocked the main road.
The town is about 60km (37 miles) south of Nakuru - also the scene of recent fighting - and sits on the main road between Nakuru and the capital Nairobi.
Former UN chief Kofi Annan has been holding talks to try to end the month-long election deadlock in Kenya.
He was meeting opposition leader Raila Odinga in Nairobi on Sunday.
Mr Annan visited the violence-racked Rift Valley on Saturday, and later said he had seen tragic, heart-wrenching scenes, and "gross and systematic abuse of human rights".
Mr Odinga accuses his rival, President Mwai Kibaki, of stealing December's presidential election.
Unrest has left at least 750 people dead and about a quarter of a million homeless.
