I don't know any African President who would voluntarily retire given the following-
a) when the ICC is actively investigating crimes planned and executed from State House under his watch;
b) when his successor would not hesitate to hand him over to the ICC;
c) when upon retirement, he is most likely going to face a local tribunal to answer for crimes committed during his tenure (especially PEV);
d) when his arch enemy (Raila) is eager to unleash revenge on his neck;
e) when retiring would mean that the son of his political mentor (Uhuru) and his most trusted friend (Muthaura) would be extradited to The Hague;
f) knowing very well that at age 80-yrs old, choices are limited with nothing to lose: retire and go to The Hague, retire and let Raila have sweet revenge, retire and face local tribunal, OR, cling to power and die in office? Given these choices, anybody with a functioning brain cell would choose the path to self-preservation.
Respectfully,
And just who is this successor you have in mind?
