Where will these people get justice?

The
danger, of pulling out of ICC is that the people of Africa will never get a
better justice solution from anywhere in Africa. The hypocrisy with Africa originates
from their condoning of anarchy and political murders.
We
have witnessed evil forces in Zimbabwe, Sudan, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda to name
just but a few operating outside the boundaries of law and invested
heavily in anarchy and political murders as a means to the acquisition of power
and the actualization of their megalomaniac appetite.
However, Africa has never done anything and it
will never do anything as a collective force to stop the rot. It’s in the
public domain that Africa has failed time and again – from ECOWAS, OAU now AU,
SADC, Panapress etc – nothing has ever materialise from these African institutions.
I
have always had reservations with the ICC especially with regards to bias when
it comes to summoning criminals to court, but hey, where is Africa going to get
a better justice solution?
Organisations
in Africa have condoned political murders and torture by other
ruthless leaders, because for them, the survival of a fellow dictator takes
premium over the lives and well being of the country's people, and the long
term security interest of the continent.
