Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta received a triumphal welcome on Thursday on his return from The Hague, local media reported.
Kenyatta is the first head of state to face charges of crimes against humanity before the International Criminal Court.
The president, his wife and supporters, who accompanied him to the trial, were welcomed by Vice-President William Ruto at Nairobi airport, the reports said.
Kenyatta inspected a guard of honour before being entertained by traditional dancers and singers declaring his innocence.
Kenyatta's lawyers argued at a Wednesday pre-trial hearing that the case should be shelved for a lack of evidence.
The judges will now consider whether they will drop the case or set a date for a trial.
