Justice is emotive, just why the recent ‘conclusion’ of the ICC cases that were facing President Uhuru Kenyatta and company evoked the question of whether retributive justice was delivered for the victims of the 2008 post-election violence in Kenya.

That question invokes the symbolism of the bronze statue with a concrete base outside the Supreme Court in Nairobi, depicting a blind,naked boy donning a wig while clutching a fish and peeing into a fountain, whose water continuously sprays the boy from four turtles.
