Uhuru, Ruto, Accused of Inciting Violence
NGOs have criticised Kenya’s Deputy Prime Minister, Uhuru Kenyatta, and Member of Parliament, William Ruto, for inciting ethnic violence with President Kibaki's blessings.
Activists, at a forum hosted by Centre for Multiparty Democracy in Nairobi, said there is a scheme to pit communities against each other and shield Uhuru and Ruto from justice.
They say in a letter to the President of the Assembly of State Parties through Kenya's permanent representative to the United Nations, President Mwai Kibaki has promised the country war if Kenyans don't support their move to shield the two from facing the justice at the Hague.
“...the political mobilisation orchestrated by Uhuru and Ruto under the watchful eye of Kibaki is to prepare the ground for conflict and this is unacceptable," explained George Kegoro, executive director of International Centre for Jurist.
