“My Bags Are Packed Already, Am Ready To Come Back Home” Miguna Miguna Says

Attorney Miguna Miguna claims that the election of President William Ruto, who has been lawfully elected, marks the end of his years in exile.

Miguna stated on Twitter that he was prepared to return to Kenya after the troubled lawyer was deported in 2018 only hours after Ruto was announced the winner of the August General Elections.

Miguna, who has previously expressed support for the UDA leader, hinted that he was optimistic he will be permitted to return to Kenya after Ruto is formally sworn in as the country’s fifth president.

“To all patriots: Relax. Thanks for the solidarity. Yes, I’ve packed my bags and I’m ready. But before I can take my flight back home, William Samoei Ruto must first be sworn in as President, the red alerts lifted and my Kenyan passport renewed. See you soon. Cheers!” Miguna wrote on Twitter.

The outspoken politician went on to commend Ruto for his triumphant victory and dedication to serving the country as captured in his speech, shortly after the declaration.

“The President-Elect, @WilliamsRutoYour acceptance speech was magnanimous and statesmanlike. Govern with a focus on the rule of law and principles of constitutionalism. Avoid tribalism, sectionalism, cronyism, nepotism and other forms of maladministration. Good luck. Viva!” Miguna stated.
After taking part in the swearing-in of ODM leader Raila Odinga as the People’s President in 2018, Miguna was expelled from the nation.

Miguna’s attempts to return to his motherland have always been unsuccessful since the government has disobeyed many court decisions to make it easier for him to do so.

When Ruto ran for president earlier this year, he pledged that if elected, he would make it easier for Miguna to return to Kenya.

“We will bring back Miguna Miguna in the country within the shortest time possible when I become President,” said DP Ruto in an interview with VOA in March.

“This is because he’s Kenyan and even if he has committed a crime, our country has laws in place. I don’t see any need for having refugees from other countries while our very own is a refugee in another country.”
