Moses Kuria Recalls the Day Miguna Miguna Strangled Uhuru

Moses Kuria Recalls the Day Miguna Miguna Strangled Uhuru

Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria claims he once rescued President Kenyatta from being strangled by Miguna Miguna.

Kuria in an interview with Tuko said the incident happened at Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) during tallying of votes for the disputed 2007 presidential election. 

He said Miguna grabbed Uhuru by the neck as ODM and PNU factions confronted each other over election’s results. When the strangling intensified, Kuria says he stepped in and punched Miguna to let go of Uhuru.

“The chaos that was in KICC for those four days…you guys will never know what was going on…you may want to know that Miguna Miguna was strangling Uhuru physically. I don’t know where I got the strength to box that giant,” Kuria said.

Uhuru and Kuria were part of former President Mwai Kibaki’s campaign team in 2007 while Miguna was on ODM leader Raila Odinga’s side.

During the interview, Kuria also discussed being denied to access State House for Kibaki’s swearing-in after Kibaki was declared the winner of the election. He says he was forced to hide inside Martha Karua’s car boot. “I left for State House for the then president Mwai Kibaki’s swearing-in Martha Karua’s car boot. Even the late IEBC chairman Samuel Kivuitu had a challenge in accessing State House from KICC,” he added.

    Kivuitu got Strunngled (instead of Uhuru) and now rotting😩6 feet under. Good riddance for condoning theft.

    The problem with Kuria and his stupid politicians is the simple fact that they never grow up! Does this idiot know how many class 2 students were # 1 in their classes but now they are in the dustbin of history because of people like him stealing the CDF money? You won’t be stealing @ Kuria if you are a villager 101.

    The only reason this piggy fool is supporting Ruto is because he is a thief! Muchera na mukundu, akundukaga otaguo! You have forgotten the villagers since they voted for you fool. Stop telling us how you were wise as a kid! We don’t eat you shitty childish wisdom!

    As for saving Uhuru from Miguna; please don’t lie! No Luo would attempt to attack a kikuyu because they all know it does not stop there. A kikuyu, Uhuru included, would have killed Miguna had he attempted to choke Uhuru!

    Why can’t the m$therfucker talk of development in Gatundu instead of telling us gano cia marimu!!? Kuria it is about time you grow up and stop leaking Ruto’s ass with a hope that after 2022 both of you will continue to steal from Kenyans! Do not make us form a second wave of MauMau to fight you; you damn traitor!

    I can assure Kenyans that everything Kuria says here about Miguna choking Uhuru is a pure lie! I was physically there at KICC and believe you - me it never happened!! Martha Karua can attest to what I’m saying! Kuria is lying between his crooked teeth for whatever reason(s)! This man Kuria need to be tested for a mental condition!!

  4. MugīkūyūJul 25, 2020

    Personally I would wait for Mr Miguna to confirm. I have often wondered why Mr. M.M was thrown out of his native country like a dog, now its all coming together. Thank you Mr. Moses Kūrīa for being candid. We need more like you in this government.

  5. MutuaJul 25, 2020

    Men fight all the time and what Kuria is saying here does not add up about Miguna trying to choke Uhuru! Kuria is a traitor and the last dog to save any body! Kuria stop being a bitch! You gossip like a little rotten pussy!

  6. KiprotichJul 25, 2020

    As one who was at KICC during the 2007 elections issues, I can inform the Kenya public that Kuria is not being truthful about Uhuru and Miguna. Yes, Miguna was talking loud as usual but she would shut up every time Uhuru looked at home!

    Yes, there were some heated moments but it never got to a point of Miguna Miguna choking Uhuru! Yes, I saw Kuria there but he was not any where Uhuru or Miguna for that matter!

    Uhuru had several body guards with him throughout the time at KICC and if whatever Kuria is saying had happened, I think Miguna would have been dead on the spot!

    Kuria kept a very low profile through the entire time I saw him! He was a no body then and did not have much to offers there.

    I’m not sure what Kuria is to benefit from telling a lie!

  7. WaruruJul 25, 2020

    Kuria, Kuria, Kuria - a liar of the highest degree! This weak man Kuria is lying! Whatever his reason for lying is, I do not know!

  8. MurayaJul 25, 2020

    Kuria must have been abused by the rest of the kids in his family! The seven others may have abused him for being a geek!

  9. NjoroJul 25, 2020

    This guy Kuria is seriously mentally ill! I have talked to many people who were in attendance at KICC and they have denied whatever Kuria is talking about choking! It never happened! Many say Uhuru had his many body guards next to him at all times at KICC. This dummy is plainly lying!

  10. NjeriJul 25, 2020

    As a Gatundu South voter, this petty Kuria does not deserve to be our MP! It is time for him to go!! You don’t bitter a hand that fed you! We need an MP who can work for the people! We don’t need our MP to be following a thief across the country like a lonely dog! We are done with you Kuria!

  11. AkinyiJul 25, 2020

    Miguna is the worst coward there is in the Luo community! I doubt what Kuria is telling here happened! The guy has only a big mouth!

  12. SokoraJul 25, 2020

    No wonder Miguna has been deported. With Miguna's uncontrollable rage, Uhuru may be fearful Miguna could go for his neck again.

  13. MwanikiJul 25, 2020

    The son of the great Jomo was not, has not, will not be afraid of no body let alone the big mouth Miguna!

    Miguna would have been circumcised with a blunt Kifido right there by Uhuru boys if he had touched Uhuru! These are things fold talk about in the movies and. It in real life. Kuria can’t even save a his drowning son or a vacuous monkey! How then is Kuria gonna save Uhuru!?

    Let me make this very clear, MP Kuria is what we call a Kihii ( uncircumcised lad) and he is lying about the events of 2007! Kuria is just a village wag looking for attention like a bitch undergoing a heavy mensural cycle!

    Kikuyu men hate a gossiper with passion. This Kuria is very immature and he need to be ignored with the contempt he deserves! He is an idiot!!

  14. GuestyJul 25, 2020

    Miguna is a Kenyan.

  15. MurayaJul 25, 2020

    No! Miguna is Canadian!!

  16. Ndei KoliJul 26, 2020

    Please not you or anyone can determine his citizenship.

    These papers are revocable but not birthright. This guy is a can however painful it may be

  17. MurayaJul 27, 2020

    Miguna was so happy to pay alliance to Canada when he changed his citizenship! Changing ones citizenship is a wholistic process which also affects your birth rights. Miguna is now a good citizen of Canada.

  18. KamauJul 25, 2020

    I certainly would love to slap you across your damn face for acting like an old woman! Kikuyu men are far much better than this fucking nonsense you are talking about here! Stop a shaming us you fool! What a shame!

  19. NancyJul 25, 2020

    Uhuru would have killed Miguna Miguna and wait for chips to fall where they may! Our Kikuyu men do not take shit! Kuria is paid by the nincompoop Ruto to lie! We can see through this Kuria! Don’t let me slap you with my dirty under pant in your stinky mouth! Go to hell!!

  20. WambuiJul 25, 2020

    Kuria is a damn foolish donkey dick! How do dummies like this one fool people to vote for him? A man of no commercial value; indeed!!

  21. Ndei KoliJul 26, 2020

    It is not you or any one to determine his citizenship.

    The guy is kenyan by birth period.

    These papers are revocable /

  22. LicheJul 26, 2020

    But he denounced his birthrights when he took over citizenship of another country! Citizenship decisions have consequences.

  23. Dan KomenJul 27, 2020

    Now I’m mad at Miguna. He had the chance to finish this mess Kenya is in and he let go.
