The trials of Uhuru Kenyatta and William Ruto have everything to do with the Kenyan state and Kenyan people only to the extent that innocent Kenyans were murdered, raped and displaced. It is because of the victims of 2008 genocide in Kenya that the ICC trials is about Kenya and Kenyans. Otherwise, Uhuru Kenyatta was clear during the presidential campaigns that his trial at the ICC is a personal challenge. He should therefore leave Kenya and Kenyans at peace not in pieces when fighting his personal challenges.
