    "content": "will remain innocent. You can never shift the burden of proof to the accused person. It is wrong for any power whatsoever to disregard what Africa has said. It is time Africa was listened to. When they say: “Do not prosecute our leaders when they are in power”, they are right. I also believe that the Tenth Parliament made a mistake when they were shouting here all over the place that “Let us not be vague; let us go to The Hague” and somebody said they believed prosecution would never come; it came. Why did they not know that Americans did not subject themselves to the Rome Statute? Why did they not know that other world powers did not do it? Why did we do it? Next time we pass laws, we must be very careful and be very sure that justice comes, however long it takes and it is for all of us. When I talk about justice and sovereignty, I believe that they must apply for all of us. We are now one Government and one country, and whoever was evicted from wherever, for instance from Narok or Kisumu, should go back. We also ask questions: where did all these IDPs come from? We have been settling them yet all of them have not been settled. What happened to their pieces of land? We said “ turudi nyumbani ”. I am sure songs are still there. For us to ease the tension that is in this country, and reduce the cost of resettling people, the people who were evicted from their land should go back to it. If we keep on talking about IDPs and integrated IDPs, when will we finish resettling these people? It is important for us to do this, so that we can remain one country. If our President, the Deputy President or Mr. Sang are not guilty, or there is no evidence, then their cases should be removed from hanging over their heads."
