Hi Garth! I was somewhat shocked by the kenyan parlianment vote for withdrawing from the icc. one, i cannot believe how stupid our mps can be...if they (except adorable martha!) found value in rallying behind the hague 6! no conceivable gains whatsoever!!! two, the sympathy from a signifcant part of the kenyan public reveals TOTAL MISALIGNMENT between the kenyan voter and his/her civic interests. i see no benefit to the average public from kenya pulling out of the icc. thirdly, if impunity and rue of law (read constitutionalism) was our 2-decade point of focus....then we have made an unashamed aboutface in hardly a year since we heralded our "be-all-over-exensivetoget-constitutional paper"! yaani being african can be so painful at times....with such wanton meaningless nonsense...!! as in we cant have even 6 months without some miro country throwing one of these overly embarasing shenanigans !!! constitutional ammendments ala kenyatta-moi in the offing??????
Studied physics and math at Moi University, played too much rugby drank too much beer and spent too little time in the lecture hall and library. I, therefore, have great faith in man's ability to better himself.
