No it just amazes me why men like Edward Pojim praise this organization when it
sees no fault to Museveni who camped and killed Northerners, Kagame who created
the Rwanda genocide, Besigye who wrote the policy of annihilating the North,
John Ogole who locked up Luwero district, but the only very bad man they see in
Africa is Uhuru Kenyatta. That is how powerful is tribalism in our friends.
They forget that this very same institution with time, will switch its agenda
to start hunting down the Luo’s. Which explains why many of these Africans
support Barack Obama because he has turned Washington into a small Africa by
being tribal. Look when Americans were hunting down the Kurds no one knew
Obama will turn around to arm them. He went after The Shiites now he is after
the Sunnis, then he is in the Ambar province. So to Africans Obama is a true
Acholi, he can go after Alurs he can go after Madis he can go after Alurs. Why
not the praise when now they live the very life they lived back home. Look at
Cameroon and Nigeria, they have killed the leader of Boko Haram and officially
5 times, and shown his body on national television five different times, and
yet he still pops up and reappears.
We need to give Obama a third term the man has allowed Africans in diaspora to
realize their dreams.

UHURU TO GET VIP TREAT AT THE HAGUE, 120 MPs TO ACCOMPANY PRESIDENT AT ICC
PRESIDENT Uhuru Kenyatta will be accorded full diplomatic protocol by the
Dutch Government if he travels to The Hague next week, but his visit "would be
treated as private”.
In an exclusive interview with the Star, The Embassy of the Kingdom of the
Netherlands in Nairobi said Uhuru would be accorded VIP treatment and would be
received at the airport by officials of the Dutch Government.
“The Netherlands Government under the Rome Statute facilitates the work of the
International Criminal Court,” the Embassy's First Secretary (Political), Stijn
Janssen, told the Star.
Among other things, this means that if the ICC judges issue a warrant of
arrest for any of suspect, the Dutch Government would quickly enforce it.
She however said that Uhuru would be accorded similar treatment to other heads
of state on private visits.
“His Excellency President Kenyatta will be received as any other head of state
on a private visit to The Netherlands. His visit will be treated as a private
visit of a head of state to an intergovernmental organization,” she pointed out.
The full diplomatic treatment for heads of state comes with such trappings of
power as being driven in convoy, complete with outriders.
On his visits to The Hague, Deputy President William Ruto is usually accorded
security from the Royal Military Police and the Dutch capital's superhighways
are occasionally cleared for his convoy.
Like Ruto, Uhuru would be received at Schiphol Airport by Kenya’s Ambassador
to The Netherlands, Makena Muchiri, and her deputy, George Kwanya.
But that is the furthest his trappings of power would go.
As he enters the ICC courtroom, Uhuru would momentarily forgo the privileges
which he enjoys as head of state.
This means that his security detail, including a clique of advisers that are
always by his side, would be confined to the public gallery.
Even his wife Margaret, if she accompanies him to The Hague, would be required
to follow the proceedings from the public gallery, peering at him through
soundproof and transparent one-way glass.
MPs who would most likely travel with the President would be subjected to
tough security checks that involve removing belts, wallets and even heavy
jackets or overcoats.
ICC Outreach Coordinator to Kenya Maria Kamara said Uhuru would be treated
with “utmost respect, like all the other accused persons”.
Last year, the judges ordered Uhuru and Ruto's defence teams to stop using
their official titles of President and Deputy President respectively during
their filings to the Court.
“As a preliminary matter, the Chamber notes that, in recent filings, including
the one currently under consideration, the Kenyatta defence refers to Mr
Kenyatta repeatedly by using his title of President,” the judges noted in a
ruling.
“In the circumstances, the Chamber does not consider the use of this title
appropriate in filings in this case. The Chamber, therefore, directs the
Kenyatta defence to refrain from including Mr Kenyatta’s official title in its
filings”.
If he honours his date with the judges, Uhuru would make history as the first
head of state to make an appearance as an accused before The Hague-based
tribunal.
Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir, who is the first sitting head of
state to be indicted by the ICC, is on the run from its jurisdiction and has
never appeared before the Court.
