More than 20 people have died in fresh violence in western Kenya since Friday's agreement by government and opposition on a framework peace plan.
Some were killed by police, others were hacked to death by gangs or shot with poisoned arrows.
A church was burnt down by youths near the Rift Valley town of Eldoret.
The deal between President Mwai Kibaki and opposition leader Raila Odinga aims to end bloodshed in the aftermath of December's disputed elections.
Former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said the rival parties had agreed a four-point framework for talks which should end the violence within the next two weeks.
But the BBC's Matt Prodger in Nairobi says so far there is little sign that Mr Annan's optimism is having much effect in the streets.
