Miguna Miguna Makes Fresh Demand to Kenyan Government from Dubai

Embattled opposition firebrand Miguna Miguna has now demanded the government to deliver a Kenyan passport to him in Dubai to enable him travel back to Nairobi.

In a statement on Friday, the self-proclaimed National Resistance Movement (NRM) general claimed that he is "marooned" in the United Arabs Emirates capital following his dramatic deportation on Wednesday night.

Miguna, who was taken ill at a medical facility in Dubai, said he is still in pain after officers allegedly tranquilized him with an unknown substance before forcing him into an Emirates airline flight on Wednesday night.

"I am in great pain, stress and inconvenience. My left hand is still badly swollen. I believe that Jubilee thugs had inserted an IV in it to keep me unconscious for the entire duration of the flight between Nairobi and Dubai," he said.

"My left side is extremely painful. I’m yet to get toxicology tests done on the chemicals the state thugs violently and illegally injected me with on Tuesday evening."

He insisted he will not agree to be flown to another destination other than Kenya and demanded the Immigration Department to send him a Kenyan passport to enable him return to Kenya.

“I don’t have any travel document or passport,” he said.
“I need Kihalangwa and Matiang’i to deliver my Kenyan passport to me here in Dubai tomorrow, March 30, 2018, as multiple courts have ordered them to do, so that I can use it to travel to Nairobi immediately.”

"I insist that my constitutional right to a Kenyan passport must be respected and upheld. My right to travel in and out of the country freely must also be respected and upheld at all times, in the same manner that these rights apply to all Kenyans equally," he said.

Miguna was bundled out of the country for the second time in a span of one month, 72 hours after he landed at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport on Monday, but was denied entry.

"I’m waiting for clearance from the Emirates Air and UAE authorities and an air ticket back to Nairobi. I intend to fly back to Nairobi as soon as possible. It’s my birthright, constitutional and legal right as well," he said.

"I will never waive my rights because an authoritarian and barbaric usurpers of power demand or expect that I do."
