All set for Uhuru, Bensouda legal duel

By FELIX OLICK

The stage is Wednesday set for a major legal duel between President Uhuru Kenyatta and International Criminal Court (ICC) Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda during a key meeting at The Hague.

The trial Bench has issued a three-point agenda that will be deliberated during the status conference set to last approximately four hours.

The defence of President Kenyatta will be pushing for the termination of the case, with Ms Bensouda expected to lay bare additional investigative steps her office has undertaken against the Head of State since she requested for an adjournment of the case two months ago.

The status conference coincides with the date earlier set for commencement of the president’s trial that was, however, put off after the prosecution cited insufficient evidence.

CRITICAL MEETING

But ahead of the critical meeting, Bensouda appeared to shift goalpost asking the judges to adjourn the case until the Government of Kenya cooperates with the court by giving more evidence against Uhuru.

“The Government of Kenya’s non-compliance has blocked an important avenue of investigation in this case and the GoK has failed to provide a supportable explanation for its obstructionism,” Bensouda told the Trial Chamber headed by Japanese judge Kuniko Ozaki.

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”.
