Renowned lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi has defended NRM's self-declared General, Miguna Miguna, after he was arraigned in court four days after his arrest.
The Senior Counsel, who does not shy away from controversial issues, faulted the Director of Public Prosecutions for charging Miguna maintaining that he shouldn't have been arraigned in court.
"In my view, the Director of Public Prosecution shouldn't have charged Miguna Miguna at all," Ahmednasir noted in a post on his Twitter page.
Ahmednasir maintained that the DPP will spend taxpayers money and waste their time on Miguna who in his opinion was not worth it.
He further adviced the DPP to ensure they finalise the whole case within the stipulated time by the Constitution.
"Now that he is in court the DPP must prosecute & finalise the case within 120 days. By June we must have a conviction or acquittal," Ahmednasir maintained.
Miguna was arrested after he and Ruaraka legislator TJ Kajwang administered an oath to Opposition leader Raila Odinga at Uhuru Park.
The Canada-based lawyer was charged at a Kajiado court on Tuesday where he refused to take a plea.
Police charge sheet alleged the lawyer was liable for being present and consenting to the NASA leader's oath.

"Charged with administration binding Raila Odinga to commit a capital offence namely treason contrary to Section 59 of the Penal Code," the charge sheet read in part.
