Kenya: President Uhuru Kenyatta will this afternoon address an emergency session of Parliament where his summons to appear before the International Criminal Court (ICC) in the Netherlands is likely to feature.
The special sitting of Parliament comes days after ICC judges ruled he must be present, in person, on Wednesday during a status conference at which his government’s co-operation with the prosecution in the case against him will be discussed.
President Kenyatta will address an anxious nation on his imminent history-making move as the first sitting president to appear before the ICC, a spectacle that Kenya, backed by the African Union, fought hard to block with amendments to the rules governing the court.
