As Kenyans celebrate following the acquittal of Deputy President William Ruto and journalist Joshua Sang of crimes against humanity charges by the ICC, the biggest riddle remains whether the post-election violence victims will ever get justice now that all the 'Ocampo Six' have been let off the hook.
The 'Ocampo Six' may not have been guilty, but the fact is, there were criminals behind the brutal killings of innocent Kenyans and the displacement of some who until now, are living in IDP camps.
This means that the criminals behind the 2007-08 violence are free individuals lucky to have evaded the law.
However free these perpetrators maybe, their conscience will never be free. Their guilt will always haunt them for those that they directly or indirectly caused their deaths.
This is maybe a lesson for Kenyans who are too fast to be divided based on ethnicity by their leaders who are usually well secured in their palaces or outside the country as ordinary Kenyans go for each other's throats.
At the end of the day, mwananchi wa kawaida is the main victim as the criminals wander freely. The very leaders who divide Kenyans usually dine together in prestigious hotels as the commoners hate on their neighbours who could help them out in their time of need while the elite engage in endless social media ethnicity battles.
By now, Kenyans ought to have known better. We are heading for the 2017 elections and tribal politics are still the order of the day.
With no one having been held responsible for the 2007-08 violence, Kenyans now clearly know that fighting their neighbour simply because they are from a different ethnic group is more trouble for them but more joy to their leaders.
