>>29172Why di US dey campaign against di ICC and wetin di withdrawals mean for di tribunal?
Executive director for di Jatikay Center for Human Security and Peace Building, Adib Saani bin explain to BBC News Pidgin wetin dis witdrawals mean.
* Why dis witdrawals?
According to di security analyst, "dis withdrawals be about di growing revolt against di post-Cold war international order."
"Di Sahel bin dey send message say dem no longer want international justice to be perceived as justice wey dem impose from outside."
Oga Adib Saani explain say "for dis govments, dis exits from di ICC be political statement, just as ibi about sovereignty and legal decision."
Im add say weda dis exit dey justified or not, many African govments believe say ICC bin get "credibility problem".
"Dis kontris also dey in di middle of war against terrorism. Allegations don dey about extra-judicial killing of civilians for Mali and Burkina Faso, i tin say dis withdrawals be safeguard against future prosecution," oga Adib Saani tok BBC News Pidgin.
* Why di US dey support and campaign for withdrawals?
Di US already show dia disappointment for di ICC, na so dem begin ogbonge campaign against di tribunal.
Dem ask oda kontris to comot fro di tribunal to protect dia sovereignty.
But security analyst Adib Saani say di US position for dis mata no really clear sake of dem neva dey part of di ICC bifor.
"E dey ironic say di most powerful democracy for di world dey encourage oda kontris to comot di court wey dey demserf dem neva join."
Adib Saani say "di US position for dis mata no really be about Africa, but more about dia own long-standing discomfort wit any international court wey fit scrutinise dia citizens or allies especially Israel."
* Wetin be di implication of dis withdrawals on di ICC itserf?
"Di ICC dey face di biggest legitimacy test since dia establishment for 2002, dem fit survive dis legally but politically, di ICC dey face risk of islolation," Adib Saani tok.
"Di greatest threat to di ICC no be di number of kontris wey dey withdraw, but di confidence for dia impartiality, wey dey vanish."
Di sabi pesin tok BBC News Pidgin say "every withdrawal bin chip away di moral authority of di court, even if e no dey weaken dia legal powers."
Im explain further say "di ICC neva dey need to lose majority of im members to face legitimacy crisis, dem only need enough kontris to make corperation difficult."
"Dis be sake of di fact say kontris dey make up di ICC, without dem, ICC go become yet anoda extinct global entity."
