Dear Sirs/Madams,
RE : TRIMMING THE ICC POWERS IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE:
On 14th. of April this year, Kenya was quoted by the media of being in a spot over push to trim ICC powers. At the AU meeting held in January 2010, President Muammar Ghadaffi of Libya, who was the Chairman of the AU, was said to have vowed to lobby for the support of the African states to stop their membership with the ICC. There is evidence that the Au Office is in support of dismissing the ICC from its endeavor to help the African People who are currently suffering in the hands of their ruthless leaders. In defense and protection of the African leaders, the then OAU turned AU, passed a resolution in 1999 at an OAU meeting in Algiers, not to recognize undemocratic power grabs and military coups in Africa in future. The AU has never discussed the rampant corruption in Africa which has left many Africans dead and many others in abject poverty. So far the Au has never seriously addressed the chaotic situation in Somalia. In 1994, the Au failed to help the situation in Rwanda leave alone the problems in the Southern Sudan.
In 1991/92, 800 innocent children and women were killed in Kenya. From 1993 to 1998 innocent Kenyans continued to be killed without any words of the slightest concern from the AU. From 2003 to 2007 innocent Kenyans continued to be killed and no one from the AU office showed concern. On 9th. December 2009, 100,000 bullets, Army Uniforms, guns, Plane Batteries military gear, and other weapons were discovered hidden in a place in Narok Kenya. On the 2nd. of February 2010, 31,121 bullets, 20,000 lit res of gas, 20 gallons of military oil, several land rover spare parts, Trucks and Government Land Rovers were reported to have been discovered in the same area. Early this year the BBC interviewed young men in Eldoret Kenya on the influx and accumulation of weapons. The young men admitted that they were heaping weapons in readiness for an anticipated war in 2012. These are signs of a chaotic situation in Kenya.
Instead of the Kenya leaders and the AU discussing how to prevent an uncontrollable situation in Kenya, they are discussing how to trim the powers of the ICC so that the perpetrators, financiers and the planners of the post election violence may not be prosecuted. Why has the Kenya leaders and the Au not arrested any single person since the senseless killings of the innocent children and women in Kenya which started more than 14 years ago? Why have they not yet prosecuted those who killed women and children at the Kiambaa church? Why has the rampant corruption persisted in Kenya for so many years without any tangible action? The Kenyan leaders and the AU may succeed to trim the ICC off its Powers in Africa. Thereafter the Kenya leaders will continue to loot public funds and instigate chaos and killings with impunity. But let me warn the Au and the Kenya Leaders. The ICC may eventually be disabled and may be unable to prosecute the planners and the financiers of the post election Killings. But the continued oppression of the common person, rampant corruption and the politically instigated killings will force Kenya to give birth to a Jerry Lawlings of the 1979, a Samuel Do of the 1980, an Ayatollar Ruhollah Khomeini of the 1979 or a Corazon Aquino of the 1986. Let us all prevent this from happening. The Kenyan leaders should be honest and Transparent.
Sincerely
