Kenyans living in the Diaspora have added their voice to the ongoing debate surrounding the confirmation of charges hearings at the ICC.
From their observations, it appears that some of them want the post election violence suspects to face trial locally while others are of the opinion that The Hague option is sure to deliver justice.
Kenyans living in the Diaspora have been actively engaging in the ongoing debate about the confirmation of charges hearings at the International Criminal Court (ICC).
Their involvement is significant as it highlights the diverse perspectives of the Kenyan community worldwide on the matter, especially given the historical context of the cases tied to the 2007-2008 post-election violence.
The Diaspora community has voiced various opinions, some supporting the ICC’s efforts to hold perpetrators accountable, while others express concerns about the potential impact on Kenya’s reputation and stability.
For many Kenyans abroad, the discussions surrounding the ICC are not just about legal processes but also about national identity, justice, and reconciliation after years of political tension.
The Diaspora’s participation also underscores the importance of international opinion in shaping the discourse on justice and accountability in Kenya.
As the country navigates these complex issues, the role of Kenyans in the Diaspora, who often hold dual perspectives shaped by both their home country and their experiences abroad, remains an important part of the conversation.
