In 2002, International Criminal Court (ICC) was formed with 124 member countries. In this court, the trial of charges like genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes were completed.

He said, "The ICC has become Africa's tool of control. Trust in the paper, the victims should have a method to seek justice. But there is no presence in the ICC. "
