A group of youths who had planned a demonstration against the ICC in the region have put their plans on hold, waiting for directions from their political leaders.

Another group of youths, led by Kerio Youth Association chairman Joel Kimaiyo, said they would stage protests in the next few days.

“What is happening in the ICC is no longer justice but politics. Why did the ICC allow the use of recanted testimony from previous witnesses against Ruto and Sang? This is unacceptable,” said Kimaiyo during a youth meeting in Iten on Sunday.

He said they were planning major demonstrations across the Rift Valley to press the ICC to drop the cases against Ruto and Sang.

The youth said they feel the government is not supporting the DP.

“We now have peace in Kenya and we wonder why the court is still holding on to these cases. DP Ruto has worked hard to unite all communities in the country and the ICC should drop these cases as soon as possible,” he said.

Seems they want to cause chaos when he is jailed.
If I were these people and living in Kaleoland, I would go back home because of the risks that will come when he is jailed for 75 years in 2016!!!!!!!

Some North Rift leaders have urged Jubilee politicians to use legal channels rather than “wasteful prayer rallies” in defence of Deputy President William Ruto at the ICC.

Led by Cherangany MP Wesley Korir, the leaders on Tuesday said though prayers are important, they are legally invalid.

Leaders, they said, should desist from politicising the case in the name of prayers.

“We are not opposed to prayers at all. In fact, we encourage them," said Mr Korir, a former Boston Marathon winner-turned-politician.

"But pragmatically, this are legal proceedings and only evidence tabled by both sides will prevail and we should invest more in the legal team and process if we genuinely need the Deputy President and Joshua arap Sang to be free.”

PUBLIC INCITEMENT

Politicians, mostly from the Rift Valley and central Kenya, recently launched a series of prayer rallies to seek divine intervention in the crimes-against-humanity case facing Mr Ruto and Mr Sang.

Mr Korir and other leaders argued that cases against President Kenyatta and former Industrialisation Minister Henry Kosgey were dropped after a legal battle, not prayers.

“As much as they might be meaning good for the two gentlemen, this might also be interpreted as a public incitement against an already ongoing legal process, which may be counterproductive,” said Mr Kipkorir Menjo, ODM’s North Rift point man.

According to Mr Menjo, politicians, especially from the Rift Valley, must learn from Mr Kosgey, who left the legal process to run its course.

1,133 DIED

“They should instead involve state parties, as I have heard they are engaging the African Union, rather than conducting prayers-cum-political rallies which might be misconstrued as them undermining the legal process,” added Mr Menjo.

The case against Mr Ruto and Mr Sang stemmed from the 2007-08 post-election violence in which 1,133 people were killed and 650,000 uprooted from their homes.
