Miguna Miguna Deported
On 30 January 2018, in a mock swearing-in ceremony, Miguna administered an oath of office to Raila Odinga, where Odinga proclaimed himself “the people’s president”. The government reacted by shutting down all television and radio broadcasts and arresting Miguna and another lawyer (T J Kajwang’) who had witnessed the ceremony (but did not arrest Odinga, since that would further inflame his supporters).
On 28 March, just hours before Miguna was ejected from the country, High Court judge George Odunga declared the interior minister, the national police chief, and the head of immigration to be in contempt of court for their actions in defying a court order to release Miguna and fined them US$2000 each.

When Miguna returned to the country, he contested in the primaries of the (ODM)’s nomination for Nyando Constituency but lost to Frederick Outa Otieno. He also took part in the 2007 general election and was later appointed as Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s senior adviser on coalition affairs in March 2009 where he served hand in hand with Kivutha Kibwana as the Joint-secretary to the Permanent Committee on the Management of the Grand Coalition Affairs. In August 2011, Miguna was accused of gross misconduct and was thereby suspended without pay.
When the suspension was lifted on 29 December 2011, he rejected his reinstatement. Some members from the Party of National Unity accused him in 2010 of being a foreigner for holding a Canadian passport, as Kenyan law didn’t recognize dual citizenship at the time he acquired Canadian citizenship, although the Kenyan constitution was changed in 2010 to allow for it. Regards to the accusation, Miguna responded by saying that he was a Kenyan citizen by birth and that he had never renounced his citizenship.
Miguna Miguna Return To Kenya
Kenyan Justice John Mativo summoned the Kenyan Attorney General Mr. Paul Kihara Kariuki to appear in court on 13 January 2020, to explain why orders allowing lawyer Miguna’s return to Kenya had not been obeyed. The Attorney General did not appear in court and instead sent a team of lawyers to appear in court on his behalf, prompting protest from Miguna’s lawyers, who said that the state was treating the matter casually.
On 6 January 2020, Kenyan high court Judge Justice Weldon Korir ordered the government to facilitate the entry of Dr. Miguna back to the country, and that the registrar should release Miguna’s Kenyan passport which is currently under custody.
An order be and is hereby issued, that pending and following the inter-parties hearing of the Application, compelling the Respondents to facilitate entry of the Petitioner into Kenya on January 7, 2020, or any other date appointed by the Petitioner on the basis of his identification through the use of his National Identity Card, or his Kenya Passport in the form and state it was delivered by the Respondents to the High Court Registry pursuant to this Court’s Order
