Miguna Miguna Lectures Kenyans on How to Earn 'Respect' from Foreigners

Deported lawyer Miguna Miguna says foreign nationals will continue to insult and disrespect Kenyans unless they act as people who deserve respect.

Miguna, who was reacting to an incident in which a racist Chinese man was videotaped calling Kenyans 'monkeys' and insulting President Uhuru Kenyatta, further said that Kenyans must earn respect by not begging foreigners for help.

"If Kenyans want the Chinese and other people to respect them, they must begin to act as a people deserving of respect," the self-declared National Resistance Movement (NRM) general said on Twitter.

He added: "Stop begging the Chinese, Americans and Europeans for 'help' when your vast wealth is being looted by Uhuru Kenyatta and company. Show courage. Fight for your liberation!"

The Chinese man identified as Liu Jiaqi was the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Sonlink Limited, a company that sells motorcycles along the Northern Bypass in Ruiru, Kiambu County.

The foreigner was arrested on Wednesday evening by officers from the Immigration Department and was deported to China on Thursday on grounds of racism.
