Jan 23, 2012 Kenya: Impunity & Elections, 2
"The promulgation of the constitution on 27 August 2010, was
a historic moment in our country. The constitution was a
culmination of the work of a lifetime for most people in
this gathering and many other Kenyans not at this meeting.
It may also stand out in history as the singular achievement
of Kenyans in this time. ... Yet, my concern is that there
appears not to have been a proper appreciation of the
essence of this constitution after its promulgation. ... I
have come to the inescapable conclusion that there are
Kenyans at all levels who are yet to make the mental shift
to the national and individual conduct that the constitution
heralds." - Chief Justice Willy Mutunga, December 2011
Jan 23, 2012 Kenya: Impunity & Elections, 1
"Public support for the ICC remains high. A majority of the
respondents - 64 per cent - are happy that the ICC is
pursuing the six suspects. ... the perception that the
government is unlikely to conduct genuine investigations, or
prosecute powerful individuals, has sustained high support
for the ICC as the justice mechanism of last resort." -

Dec 14, 2010 USA/Africa: Wikileaks Highlights, 2
It should be no surprise to anyone that South African diplomats
been been frustrated both with Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe
and with Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai, or that Kenya and the
United States have enjoyed close military to military ties despite
vocal U.S. criticism of the Kenyan government. Wikileaks cables
released to date, such as the ones included in this AfricaFocus
Bulletin, provide some nuances and may be embarrassing, but provide
no "smoking guns" or startling revelations.
