Wie in den meisten Kulturen der Welt gemeinhin gelehrt wird, ist „Geschichte“ eine Schilderung von großen – oder schrecklichen – Dingen, die von privilegierten Menschen in entscheidenden Momenten im Leben eines Stammes, eines Volkes oder einer Nation gesagt oder getan wurden. Diese Theorie vom „großen Mann“ in der Geschichte reduziert jedoch zwangsläufig unsere Erwartungen an uns selbst. Wenn Geschichte, die australien es wert ist, aufgezeichnet zu werden, von anderen gemacht wird, die wichtige Dinge auf Bühnen sagen oder tun, auf die wir nie einen Fuß setzen werden, wird unsere Verantwortung für die Veränderung der Welt um uns herum irgendwie geringer.

  • Chapter 15 Administering and Regulating Security And
    CHAPTER 15 ADMINISTERING AND REGULATING SECURITY AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE IN KENYA AND AFRICA This Chapter may be cited as Ben Sihanya (forthcoming 2021) “Administering and Regulating Security and Criminal Justice in Kenya and Africa,” in Ben Sihanya (2021) Constitutional Democracy, Regulatory and Administrative Law in Kenya and Africa Vol. 1: Presidency, Premier, Legislature, Judiciary, Commissions, Devolution, Bureaucracy and Administrative Justice in Kenya Sihanya Mentoring & Prof Ben Sihanya Advocates, Nairobi & Siaya 15.1 Conceptualizing Security and the Criminal Justice System in Kenya and Africa My overarching argument is that national or public security has a narrow and a broad meaning and significance which are equally important in the quest for constitutional democracy in Kenya and Africa.1 In this chapter, security and criminal justice is problematized and conceptualized using the Afro-Kenyanist methodology and approach, with elaborate anecdotes and references to Kenyan and African scholarship. What are some of the key issues in the constitutional, legislative, policy and administrative debate in the context of the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI)…. How has security and the criminal justice system (CJS) been conceptualized, problematized, and contextualized in Kenya and Africa? Significantly, in Kenya and some African states, security is a human right. It is also a core function and obligation of the Executive and the President and or Prime Minister. Art 238(1) of the Constitution defines national security thus: “National security is the protection against internal and external threats to Kenya’s territorial integrity and sovereignty, its people, their rights, freedoms, property, peace, stability and prosperity, and other national interests.”2 And Article 29 also guarantees security as a human right.

    14th September, 2017 TO; The Secretary Judicial Service Commission Supreme Court Building NAIROBI Dear Madam, RE: PETITION AGAINST JUSTICE DAVID MARAGA Chief Justice & President of Supreme Court A. COMPLAINTS & FACTS THEREOF 1.0 Violation of Regulation 12 of The Judicial Code of Conduct & Ethics The Chief Justice has invited, encouraged and permitted entry into the core of the Judiciary by Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) who are known protagonists of the President and Deputy President and who propagated the prosecution of the President and Deputy President at the International Criminal Court (ICC). These elements have now captured the Judiciary with the intent of procuring a regime change through judicial radicalism. The Chief Justice has, inter alia; a) Invited, facilitated and supported the embedding of technical support and financing by the International Development Law Organization (IDLO) to entities within the Judiciary including the Judicial Training Institute, National Council for Administration of Justice and Judicial Election Committee, with full knowledge that the IDLO organization is associated with the known anti-government partisan protagonists, including Makau Mutua who is a Board Member thereof; with full knowledge that the entity collaborates with local non-state actors that participated in prosecuting the President and Deputy President at the I.C.C; with full knowledge that the entity is further associated with local non-governmental organizations and individuals who petitioned against the election of the President

  • Kenya 2020 Human Rights Report
    KENYA 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Kenya is a republic with three branches of government: an executive branch, led by a directly elected president; a bicameral parliament consisting of the Senate and National Assembly; and a judiciary. In the 2017 general elections, the second under the 2010 constitution, citizens cast ballots for president, deputy president, and parliamentarians, as well as county governors and legislators. International and domestic observers judged the elections generally credible, although some civil society groups and the opposition alleged there were irregularities. The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission declared Jubilee Coalition Party candidate Uhuru Kenyatta had won re-election as president over opposition candidate Raila Odinga. The Supreme Court subsequently annulled the results for president and deputy president, citing irregularities, and the court ordered a new vote for president and deputy president that the opposition boycotted. The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission declared President Kenyatta winner of the new vote, and the Supreme Court upheld the results. The National Police Service maintains internal security and reports to the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government. The National Intelligence Service collects intelligence internally as well as externally and reports directly to the president. The Kenya Defense Forces report to the Ministry of Defense and are responsible for external security but have some domestic security responsibilities,

  • Putting the Relationship Between States and the Icc Into Perspective: the Viability of National Courts in Driving Complementarity in Africa
    PUTTING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STATES AND THE ICC INTO PERSPECTIVE: THE VIABILITY OF NATIONAL COURTS IN DRIVING COMPLEMENTARITY IN AFRICA Justin Ngambu Wanki DEUG, Licence, Maitrise en droit LLM LLD Post-Doctoral Research Fellow, University of Pretoria Grace Bilounda Mundela Licence, Maitrise en droit LLM Researcher in Humanitarian and International Criminal Law, University of Pretoria Michelo Hansungule LLB LLM PhD Professor of Human Rights, University of Pretoria SUMMARY This article discusses implementation challenges of the principle of complementarity; challenges in prosecuting sitting African Heads of state and nefarious warlords. The article highlights the disparity existing in physical security and remuneration between judges of national African courts and those of the ICC in similar jobs. While national judges are exposed to intimidation and influence from the most powerful in their jurisdictions, the ICC judges are provided with adequate protection and independence. Using the DRC and Kenya as case studies, this article asserts that where national courts intervene in prosecuting international crimes, heads of state would not be prosecuted. In most African states, the courts are spawned from the authoritarian regimes. This challenge renders the reliance on complementarity justice questionable. 1 INTRODUCTION Pursuant to Article 17 of the Rome Statute on the admissibility criteria, the International Criminal Court (ICC) only assumes its jurisdiction in circumstances where a state has failed genuinely to investigate and 136 PUTTING

  • How Moi Manipulated Luo Politics to Entrench His Authoritarian Rule
    How Moi Manipulated Luo Politics to Entrench His Authoritarian Rule By Akoko Akech Daniel arap Moi, Kenya’s second and longest-serving post-independence president, was buried at his Kabarak home on February 12th. His death, eulogy and press coverage by the big commercial media outlets have stoked divisive debates and ambivalent recollections of the past, which recall Fyodor Dostoevsky’s observations that “while nothing is easier to denounce than an evildoer, nothing is more difficult than to understand him.” How does one understand the evils of the Nyayo government if Moi was solely responsible for some of the evils of his government, but not all the evils were exclusively his? And what if some of the evils Moi is rightly condemned for, such as crony capitalism, sabotaging democracy, resisting political reforms, political murders and corruption, are also the evils that were perpetuated by his predecessors, Jomo Kenyatta and Mwai Kibaki, and even his successor, Uhuru Kenyatta? Perhaps one way is not to see Moi as the African Big Man, which Moi’s death has brought back into circulation. Though convenient, the Big Man or strongman reference conceals rather than reveals the kind of state power an authoritarian ruler wields, and the internal and external political forces that also shape the politics of authoritarian regimes. It conceals the wellspring of crimes committed by an evil leader in charge of a highly centralised and unitary state, one where the executive’s power has been concentrated in the presidency in particular, without the mitigating effect of the counter- balancing powers of an independent Parliament and judiciary.

A Legal and Political Analysis Liza Micke Abstract: This dissertation analyses whether Raila Odinga v IEBC 2017, the judgement with which the Supreme Court nullified the result of the 2017 Presidential Election in Kenya, advanced the rule of law in the country. Raila Odinga v IEBC 2017 was the second judgement on a petition challenging the result of a Presidential Election – Raila Odinga v IEBC 2013, with which the result of the 2013 Presidential Election was upheld, beingthe first – since the promulgation of the Constitution, 2010. It was also the second opportunity for the judiciary to implement the constitutional dispensation established under the Constitution, 2010, thereby, advancing the rule of law in the country, after it had failed to do so in Raila Odinga v IEBC 2013.
