Miguna Miguna Reacts to Uhuru and Raila's Harambee House Meeting

National Resistance Movement (NRM) leader, Miguna Miguna, on Friday, reacted to the unexpected meeting and reconciliation of President Uhuru Kenyatta and National Super Alliance (NASA) leader Raila Odinga.

A seemingly angry Miguna criticised the meeting terming it a move meant to turn Kenya into an authoritarian and despotic Kenyatta and Odinga Monarchy.

According to the lawyer, the meeting between the two was meant to cement the 55-year domination by a few elites and families at the expense of the more than 99 percent of suffering Kenyans.

"Mr Odinga’s unilateral, irrational and erratic decision to betray the fight for electoral justice, the culture of impunity and the abuse of human rights cannot be justified.

"The “reconciliation” is not intended to help the unemployed youth get jobs, and the homeless get housing. It is not intended to help the struggling workers; the professionals and the middle class secure their future and their livelihoods, it is meant to cement the 55-year domination by a few elites and families," he stated.

He further divulged that by meeting the Jubilee Party leader, the former Prime Minister had betrayed the hundreds of innocent Kenyans, who had lost their lives fighting for democracy and in defense of Odinga's "stolen" electoral victories of 2007, 2013 and 2017.

"The “reconciliation” betrays the principles for which the National Resistance Movement  (NRM) was established, which is to fight for electoral justice, social justice, the protection of the constitution and our fragile democracy, respect for the rule of law and the independence of the judiciary," he conveyed.

He also lamented how he was a victim of the swearing-in of Odinga after he got deported to Canada.

"As Raila Odinga and Uhuru Kenyatta toast, hug and laugh in Nairobi, I remain marooned in Canada because I swore the former in at Uhuru Park on January 30th, 2018.

"I am here against my will because the illegitimate regime violated my constitutional and human rights, subverted the constitution, disobeyed multiple court orders and refused to operate within the rule of law," he explained.

He, however, reiterated that he would return to the country to continue the struggle for electoral justice, social justice and an end to the culture of impunity which he claimed is being represented by Odinga and Kenyatta.

"I will join forces with all progressive forces in bringing about concrete, substantive and fundamental structural and institutional changes that Kenyans deserve," he asserted.
