Thank you for posting a photo taken during my outeach event in Nakuru. Thank u also for your attempt to paraphrase my response to the question. Let me beef it up..
The Rome Statute, the founding treaty that established the ICC does not bar suspects or accused persons from vying for political or electoral seats. It is up to the kenya laws to interpret and addreas questions of eligibility. In any case, the ICC investigates and prosecutes individuals who are most responsible for committing serious crimes, irrespective of whether or not they are sitting or former heads of states, heads of govt. serving minister or MP. No one is exempt or immune from criminal responsibility under the ICC regime.
