Beyond ICC: How Can Africa and World End Double Standards and Restore Equal Justice
Sputnik Africa
The issuance of a comprehensive sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC) as an entire institution, by the United States has marked a major escalation from previous individual targets.
This trend reflects a growing perception of bias within the ICC, as an increasing number of countries lose confidence in its credibility and impartiality.Speaking on this episode of the Redrawn Africa podcast, Dr. Dickson Osajie, a global security analyst, criminologist, and a Nigerian Army veteran, described the recent development as a moment of reckoning for the ICC.For Dr. Osajie, the court that is now under attack is the same court that Africa has spent decades criticizing for its selectivity, its bias, and its failure to pursue cases against Western powers.► You can also listen to our podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Deezer, Castbox, Pocket Casts, Afripods, Podcast Addict, and Overcast.► Check out all the episodes of Redrawn Africa Podcast

Beyond ICC: How Can Africa and World End Double Standards and Restore Equal Justice?
The issuance of a comprehensive sanction against the International Criminal Court (ICC) as an entire institution by the United States has marked a major escalation from previous individual targets.
This trend reflects a growing perception of bias within the ICC, as an increasing number of countries lose confidence in its credibility and impartiality.
Speaking on this episode of the Redrawn Africa podcast, Dr. Dickson Osajie, a global security analyst, criminologist, and a Nigerian Army veteran, described the recent development as a moment of reckoning for the ICC.
For Dr. Osajie, the court that is now under attack is the same court that Africa has spent decades criticizing for its selectivity, its bias, and its failure to pursue cases against Western powers.
"The African continent should approach international justice with a genuine perspective. A genuinely African approach, for me, should just combine strong regional ownership, as a continent. So I would recommend also in our reform that the African country should have their own regional ownership or their own African criminal courts that can assist with most of these issues up in the African continent. So we need a regional ownership with internationally recognized standards of human rights, and it must adopt the 1948 United Nations Human Rights policies," Dr. Osajie said.
