Miguna Heckled in Homa Bay County for Castigating Raila

A group of mourners at a burial in Kasipul, Homa Bay County, heckled Lawyer Miguna Miguna over his comments targeting Azimio leader Raila Odinga.

Dr Miguna accused Mr Odinga of sabotaging multi-party democracy by allegedly forcing Nyanza residents to align into a one-party setup. The firebrand politician had to stop midspeech as the mourners jeered at his accusation. He had to give the microphone to the master of the ceremony when the crowd began taunting his speech which started in Dholuo and switched to English. 

Lawyer Miguna was attending the burial service of  Elly Omondi and his wife Emmaculate Aluoch who died in a traffic accident on the Kisumu-Kisii highway. 

During the speech, Miguna evidently expressed his support for President William Ruto, urging the crowd to accept the reality. 

"The president is called William Ruto. He is the president whether you like it or not," he said. 

Dr Miguna claimed that Raila is the reason behind the political struggles in Nyanza. He stated that the region only loves the ODM party and that they don't value multiparty democracy. He said Nyanza is not enjoying the fruits of independence because of their contempt towards other parties. 

 "Right now the people of Nyanza are not enjoying the fruits of independence because of one Raila Amollo Odinga. I have said it," Dr Miguna added.
