Miguna Miguna Says Raila Approved His Second Deportation
Self-declared National Resistance Movement (NRM) general Miguna Miguna has once again blamed Opposition leader Raila Odinga for his last week forceful removal from the country by Kenyan Immigration authorities.
Miguna was last week thrown out of Kenya after being held at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) for more than 72 hours. Speaking during an interview with NewsMakers on TRT World, the exiled lawyer accused President Kenyatta of issuing orders for his removal from the country.
Miguna also claimed that National Super Alliance (Nasa) leader Odinga supported the orders by the President, following their unity pact, which he alleged has compromised the former Prime Minister.
"This order could only come from the President himself and I suspect also those ones he has entered into deal with. The reason why I say this is it is not easy for a Cabinet Minister or a bureaucrat to disobey not just one court order but 11 court orders," he asserted.
Miguna further maintained that he was drugged before being unconsciously put into a Dubai-bound Emirates airline flight. He said that he rejected attempts to force him to enter Kenya on a tourist Visa, stating that it would have restricted him from carrying out his political activities.
"What they were trying to do was to make me return to Kenya as a foreigner, a Canadian so that I could not continue to lead the NRM. So that I could not participate n political activities, so that I could not earn a living so that I could not live a free life and they could decide to return, detain remove anytime they wanted," he said during the NewsMaker interview.
Miguna has since returned to Canada for treatment after drugging claims, and has vowed to come back to Kenya once doctors give him a clean bill of health.

Miguna is like a chocolate cake (or whatever your vise).....you know you really have had enough of it....in fact, you never want to see it again..... but can't resist just one more piece when presented! I would love to study this man's mind as he is a fascinating entity - horrifies and intrigues in equal measures. Matiangi was right in saying he is his own worst enemy. I am sure there is a medical term for this character flaw, lakini.....
Bottom line: I want the drama to continue, so hurry up MM and book that flight but this time, fly out using your Canadian ID/driving license (see how far that gets you) and present to Kenya (if you make it that far) with your Kenyan ID again, just to drive your point home lest they forget! Ha, ha, ha.....dunia!
Miguna Miguna's case analogously strikes me like an illegitimate child rejected by the prospective husband of his mother. Uhuru and his kins seem to accept Raila into their home on condition that Miguna the child be not part of the marriage negotiations. This has consequently put Raila on an unfavourable dilemma of choosing between marriage and 'her' child. My advice to him is to give the marriage priority and put the child at the remote background.
