Poor Miguna To Remain In Canada As His Return Request Is Rejected

Date:

Controversial lawyer Miguna Miguna may not return to Kenya soon as he had contemplated together with former chief justice Mr. Willy Mutunga.

The Nairobi high court on Friday dismissed the application by lawyer Miguna Miguna which sought to compel the government lift all the previous red alerts that were issued against him.

According to the high court, there was no evidence to show that the outspoken lawyer had been blocked from coming back to the country.

Miguna had accused the government of frustrating his efforts of returning to the country by giving strict alerts against him. He was set to come back to the country on Tuesday, November 16, 9:00 am.

The vibrant lawyer who currently dwells in Canada was dealt a blow by the government of Kenya after he presided over an illegal swearing in ceremony. 

According to the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government, it was vital for the lawyer to be kicked out of the country on grounds that he had renounced his citizenship. As a result, he was asked to first work on his papers before being permitted into the country.

Law Society of Kenya president Mr. Nelson Havi had promised to appeal the court decision if the former National Resistance Movement (NRM) was blocked from coming back to his motherland.

“The only hindrance for Miguna’s return was the red alerts. We argued the case before Justice Edwin Okundi. If the ruling is in favor, there should be no reason as to why any airline should deny him permission to board. We have done what is legally required to ensure Miguna comes back,” he said.

On his side, Miguna urged Kenyans to chip in and force the government to allow him back into his motherland.

“I have received large volumes of messages requesting permission to welcome me to Kenya. No one needs permission from me, or from anyone else, to go to the JKIA, or anywhere else,” he stated.
