Human Rights Activist and Former Starehe MP Hopeful Boniface Mwangi has issued a bold statement after the Miguna Miguna’s drama at JKIA.
He added that it was alarming for the government to defy courts when it comes to protecting its citizens.
“It’s very dangerous when a government defies court orders. No one is safe from such a government. Today it’s Miguna, tomorrow you will be the victim. You might not like Miguna Miguna but his rights must be respected and protected! No “IFs”, No “BUTs”! President Uhuru’s entire government is afraid of one man, Miguna. Miguna Miguna is now the real, one man opposition and since he can’t be intimidated or bribed, the president doesn’t want him in Kenya. The president of the Republic of Kenya is afraid of that one man who questions his legitimacy. Nobodies don’t get harassed or deported. You harass those you fear, Uhuru fears Miguna. ” shared Boniface Mwangi
