Just like Kriegler said that it was difficult to tell who won the 2007 elections, it seems that it will be equally difficult for us to tell who was responsible for the crimes that occurred after these disputed elections, at least if we persist with our current political and social attitudes and systems.

Given that Mr. Kenyatta and Mr. Ruto have already set the position that they’ll still run for elective posts regardless of the ICC verdict, we can be sure that the country is headed for great division. For the import of the matter is not what the constitution says, but whether we have a common sense of justice and propriety or not.

It is clear to me to that the ICC cannot provide the foundation for this common sense of justice no matter what it says, and so our wait and see attitude in the hope that somehow all will be well is about to suffer a rude shock.

Unless we all admit that Ruto and Co. have been nothing but our marionettes, and that we have not been playing our roles well because of our warped sense of identity, and a general political malaise, we will only end up being a house of perpetual conflict.

Ruto to hold a press conference at his Karen home at 12pm!!!
