The likelihood of the Justice Philip Waki Report on the 2007-08 post-election violence being used in the International Criminal Court (ICC) case against Deputy President Wiliam Ruto and radio journalist Joshua arap Sang has sent jitters among political leaders in Rift Valley, who fear their man could be locked out of the 2017 elections.

Consequently, the leaders are now toying with the idea of initiating a series of actions that could see the controversial report debated in Parliament and subsequently amended.
