| dc.description.abstract | The establishment of the African Court of Justice and Human and People’s Rights (ACJHPR) was part of Africa’s longstanding craving to establish continental institutions that demonstrate unique African aspects, facilitate African unity and prosperity, and contribute to solving African problems of prosecution of international crimes and human rights protection through an African way. However, whether the ACJHPR, with its present structure and tri-sectional jurisdiction, would answer Africa’s aspirations has been contentions. This article analyzes the ACJHPR’s implications for the prosecution of international crimes in Africa and the protection of human rights. It identifies positive and adverse implications and expounds on how the positive aspects outweigh the negative ones. It also argues that although the ACJHPR is far from being the ideal criminal court for Africa, its gaps can be fixed. The article provides some alternatives that could be suggested to ensure that justice is well served for international criminal and human rights violations in Africa | |
