Mr. President

The termination of the William Ruto/Joshua Sang case by the International Criminal Court is yet another sad milestone in the long search for justice for victims of post-election violence.

Dear Mr.Green,

November 10, 2014

Kenyans for Peace with Truth and Justice (KPTJ) welcomes the nomination of Sam Mohochi, executive director of the Independent Medico-Legal Unit (IMLU) for the prestigious Front Line Award 2009.

The resignation of Justice Minister Martha Karua is the clearest indication yet that the reform agenda is in peril.

President Mwai Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s absence from the Geneva talks is a manifestation of the problems that the mediation process has run into.

The scandals come in the wake of a drought where 10 million Kenyans could be facing starvation. A number of people in the north-eastern province of Kenya have died as a direct consequence of the famine.

For the first time in Kenya’s history, a commission of inquiry isolated sexual and gender-based violence for special attention.
