After ICC, let's not forget victims

This week, the yoke of crimes against humanity charges came off the necks of Deputy President William Ruto and former Kass FM presenter Joshua Arap Sang as the International Criminal Court grudgingly ‘vacated’ them.

I would like to hereby wish them good rest from this harrowing experience.

This is my duty as a good Kenyan citizen, to wish my leaders well when they are going through bad times but to also criticise them when they step on my toes or those of others. If they are not serving us well or are not guarding our meagre collection in the national granary, we must also raise our voices.
