Africa cannot remain merely the subject of international justice. Africa must help shape international justice. With the majority of ICC cases involving African situations and communities, Kenya is proud to present a jurist of Justice Njoki’s calibre — one whose career has consistently been defined by courage, intellect, and commitment to justice spanning over three decades.
Kenya presents not simply a candidate with technical legal competence, but a jurist shaped by Africa’s constitutional struggles, democratic transitions, human rights movements, and experiences of institutional rebuilding. From championing Kenya’s landmark Sexual Offences Act, contributing to the 2010 Constitution, to 15 years of distinguished Supreme Court service — Justice Njoki Ndung’u embodies the values the ICC bench needs. Kenya calls on all Rome Statute State Parties to support her candidature.
