Justice Joyce Aluoch, a Kenyan appellate judge was voted in by the UN general assembly to be judge of the International Criminal Court. Although I am not the biggest fan of the UN court (its toothlessness serious hampers the administration of justice) I am delighted that a daughter of Kenya has been given this honor to serve the global community. I wish her all the best in her work and hope that the court will continue its relentless pursuit, arrest and prosecution of war criminals from Africa’s many flash-points.

Hongera Justice Aluoch!!
