The prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Fatou Bensouda, has reaffirmed the commitment of the international community to arrest and try Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) rebel leader Joseph Kony and his accomplices for crimes against humanity.

Addressing the 7th Consultative Assembly of Parliamentarians for the International Criminal Court and the World Parliamentary Conference on Human Rights in Rome Italy recently, Bensouda warned that the crimes by the LRA outfit had spread across the region from Uganda to Congo, Sudan and Central African Republic.
“It’s a long time now since we issued warrants. I think it’s time now that Kony is stopped, arrested and brought to the ICC. We are now ready to start the case of Kony but we need to have his person before the ICC”, she announced to delegates.
Prosecutor Bensouda however said the ICC lacked an international police force to hunt for the fugitive leader and his accomplices since it only runs as a judicial institution with no army to arrest accused persons.
The responsibility to arrest Joseph Kony she emphasized still lies with the state parties that signed the ICC Statute.
“By joining the Rome Statute, state parties commit to co-operate with the court whenever and wherever the court decides to act. Co-operation is critical for the success of the Court and the office of the Prosecutor. Lack of cooperation and delays in implementation will affect the legitimacy and efficiency of the court,”Bensouda said.

MBINU ZA KUMFIKISHA MWANAMKE MWENYE MAKALIO MAKUBWA KILELENI KWA HARAKA

Kwa kawaida wanawake wanafikia kilele (mwisho wa utamu wa ngono) kati ya dakika ishirini na saa moja, yaani kwa kifupi inawachukua muda mrefu sana hali inayopelekea mpenzi mvivu kuchoka na ufanyaji wake utakuwa wa “ovyo” hali itakayo kufanya wewe kuishiwa na hamu ya kuendelea. Pamoja na kuchelewa huko ambako kunatokana na utofauti wetu kati ya mwanaume na mwanamke lakini nakumbuka hapo nyuma nilikutana na wanawake 2 waliokuwa ndani ya ndoa na wamezaa lakini hawajawahi kabisa kujua utamu wa tendo hilo alimaharufu kama “kufanya mapenzi”. Natambua kuwa ni ngumu au niseme si wanawake wote ambao wamejaaliwa kimaumbile kwamba wanafanikiwa kufika kileleni zaidi ya mara mbili kila wanapofanya mapenzi/ngono (kumbuka ni kati ya dakika 15 na saa moja hivyo Jibaba hapa awe na uwezo wa kujizuia kwa zaidi ya dk 45) na ikiwa jamaa ni “mzamiaji” basi unaweza ukaondoka na goli 3 ktk mzunguuko mmoja.
