Self-proclaimed General of the outlawed National Resistance Movement (NRM), Miguna Miguna, early Thursday morning received as a hero at the Toronto International Airport in Canada.
Mr Miguna was received by a few enthusiasts who carried placards with messages that seemed to endorse his stand on the events that led to his deportation.
The self-proclaimed General was also handed a bouquet of flowers as his supporters shouted questions and encouraged him.
One woman shouted: "Welcome General! Welcome home," as another asked him how he felt after the long flight.

"I am tired. Today (Thursday), I want to go and take a shower, I haven't showered for the last six days, maybe seven.
"So I need to take a good shower, hug my wife, hug my children, then eat properly, I have not eaten for the last one week and then I can talk about anything else," Miguna responded.
When asked for a comment on what he would like to say to Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i, President Uhuru Kenyatta and Deputy President William Ruto, the Opposition politician responded with a dare.
"Come baby come!" he stated while chuckling.
The NRM leader was deported on Tuesday night following a ruling by Justice Luka Kimaru who ordered his immediate release.
The Interior CS claimed that Miguna had renounced his Kenyan citizenship and as a result, he was taken to his country of origin.
Miguna, however, responded to the claim in a statement sent from Amsterdam strongly refuting that he renounced his Kenyan citizenship.
He further warned that he would take legal action against the government.
