Nyamira Senator Kennedy Mong'are has challenged President Uhuru Kenyatta to re-think Kenya's decision to withdraw from the International Criminal Court.
On Monday during his Jamhuri Day address, Uhuru hinted that the country will re-think its decision as a member of the Hague-based court.
But speaking to the media on Thursday at Parliament Buildings, Mong'are warned that such a decision would be detrimental even as the country heads to the 2017 elections.
"I warn the President and his ilk to re-think that decision. As we head to 2017, I see more ICC candidates from both Cord and Jubilee," he said as quoted by the Star.
"Uhuru and Ruto should not worry because they have left the ICC. Going by the statements and demeanor of politicians who have said they will reject the results, I see more candidates for the ICC," he added.
The legislator argued that going by the rising political temperatures in the country, it was evident that the next general election could be marred by chaos and violence.
In his speech Monday, Uhuru described ICC as "a tool for global power politics," hinting that Kenya may withdraw its membership in the near future.
