This is a PR nightmare for Kenya...having a Pres who is now and there at the ICC...how will he focus on the job as he tries to clear his name at the ICC? What happens if one of them is taken in? Will the government hold? My understanding is one of the two has a very strong case.

The cases will be sent back to Kenya or Arusha, or dropped and investigations started afresh! Don't worry about that.

It was as easy as that. @guru, Mkeid deal....i guess you can now see the reality more clear. Am glad we took the gamble

Let them remove the bump.Feb will be interesting at the NSE

But a Western diplomat who asked not to be named said he believed it would be difficult to find new evidence and witnesses and build a strong case against the president, given the present climate in Kenya.

Washington (AFP) - President Barack Obama will invite 47 leaders to a landmark US-Africa summit in August, seeking to widen US trade, development and security ties with an increasingly dynamic continent to which he traces part of his ancestry.

One notable inclusion is Kenya, where President Uhuru Kenyatta is currently awaiting a delayed trial at the ICC on charges related to violence after an election in 2007 that left 1,000 people dead.

The indictment has been one of the reasons why Obama is yet to visit the homeland of his late father as president.

But Obama has spoken to Kenyatta on the telephone, and the Kenyan leader has enjoyed more interaction with the outside world since a massacre at the Westgate Mall in Nairobi in September claimed by Somalia's Al-Qaeda-linked Shebab insurgents.

@hisah! it was no coincidence that Barry sat next to UK at Mandela's funeral, our shallow media called it "protocol hitch" like that can ever happen to any occupant of the oval office.

Let's be sincere here Barry was seated nowhere near UK not that the latter wanted to sit next to Barry.

This case isn't a low stakes game given UK's profile, ICC bangle this they may as well go to retirement and sell the property in that small Dutch city. Why do I sense a willy tactical retreat than anything else. Either way you have to give our African Sister some credit, she is no telly tubby ala Ocampo. She cuts a very willy and cunning character. If there was no case she would have backed off by now - remember Muthaura! So let's keep the champas chilling bra!
