Some Kenyans may end up in ICC after 2027 elections – Moses Kuria warns
Former Trade and Industry Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has put Kenyan politicians on caution as the 2027 General Election draws closer.
Former Trade and Industry Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has put Kenyan politicians on caution as the 2027 General Election draws closer.
Kuria noted that high-octane politics is gaining momentum 20 months before the election.
He suggested the politicians are polarising the country for political expediency.
According to Kuria, the politics tend to leave the country in instability, with violence likely taking centre stage.
He observed that goonism was being used as the capital in the politics, predicting an ugly outcome of the vote that will make the country unstable politically.
Kuria noted that the international community was keenly following the political developments as they unfold, warning that the players in the toxic politics might end up in the Netherlands-based International Criminal Court (ICC).
“The biggest risk to Kenya’s security and democracy is the use of goons as tools of political mobilisation in 2026 and 2027. I have talked to several friends from the diplomatic community. I can tell you without fear of contradiction that some people will end up at the ICC. This time round no witnesses will disappear!” he warned.

Kuria’s observation came amid the tough talk among politicians from across the divide.
Those allied to President William Ruto have been taking on their adversaries from the united opposition, which has vowed to remove the current regime in power.
The animosity was witnessed in some of the by-elections held late last year, with the Kasipul and Malava MP mini-polls epitomising the use of violence during voting.
Chaos was witnessed during the high-stake by-elections, with people injured and property destroyed.
