ICC cannot prevent war. Please send it to Ethiopia. ICC will come as the aftermath. The assurance we need is that Uhuru will manage his transition with the wisdom of Moi in 2002. Moi's side lost and he had the courage to respect that.
If Uhuru stops interfering in politics using police/cid/etc - and if IEBC does a clean job - the losers will go home - satisfied they have lost - and will aim for 2027.
But if they feel - that they lost unfairly - the judiciary doesn't do it job - then what assurance will they have that 2027 or 2032 will be any different.
Raila's weapon was Kondele youths. Ruto's weapon is Kalenjin warriors. Be aware of the different armoury and capabilities.
And that is how you dismember a country.
Uhuru job should be simple - stop the nonsense about this or that will not become pork (that is a war declaration) - tell the police to stay the hell out of politics - let IEBC conduct election - and things will be very SMOOTH.
All presidential candidates need to be asked whether if they get elected and there's a repeat of post-election violence, will they ensure that the government works very closely with the International Criminal Court to make sure the culprits face justice? If a candidate does not make this assurance, know that the country will be better off if he is not elected.
