Kenya should not withdraw from the Rome Statute that created the International Criminal Court, Jubilee leaders in Nakuru have said. They said although the cases against prominent Kenyans initially believed to have highest responsibility for the 2007/08 election violence were terminated, the country was still bound to its international obligations.
Nakuru county Jubilee coordinator James Karimi said it would be a wrong move to withdraw from the court. Karimi said the cases at The Hague were a lesson to those who think they can incite Kenyans to war for political interests.
“This should be a warning to all those seeking political positions,” he said. While praising the termination of the case facing the Deputy President William Ruto and journalist Joshua Sang, Karimi called on all Kenyans to embrace peace and live as brothers.
His remarks comes days ahead of a national thansgiving rally planned for Saturday at Afraha Stadium in Nakuru which President Uhuru says it’s an opportunity to unite all Kenyans. Meanwhile, Jubilee leaders and Church leaders in Central region have urged the opposition Cord to attend the rally as a sign of unity.
