"Today’s commemoration of the Ogiek ruling was a success, serving as a powerful reminder for the community to remain hopeful as we await the implementation hearing on June 4th. The director of OPDP urged the government to implement the Ogiek case,for it has been long overdue.

Yesterday I attended proceedings in the African Court on Human and People's Rights in Arusha, where the case filed by the Ogiek People of Kenya against the Government of Kenya was being heard. I stood in solidarity with them not as a gesture but as a matter of principle.
