On Friday, April 22, the country was thrown into grief following the untimely demise of former President Mwai Kibaki, and exiled lawyer Miguna Miguna’s high anticipated negative tribute lived up to its billing.
While many Kenyans including political leaders paid moving and positive tribute to the late president, the controversial lawyer in his true elements termed the late retired president as someone who natured corruption.
Taking to Twitter on Friday, April 22, Miguna said it was wrong to compare Kibaki with other freedom fighters such as Pio Gama Pint and Kwame Nkrumah.
“I eulogize true African heroes. freedom fighters. Those who had transformative visions and did everything to leave a genuine legacy of liberation. Pio Gama Pinto. Amilca Cabral. Thomas Sankara. Chris Hani. Kwame Nkrumah. Ruth First. Not renegades like Kenyatta, Kibaki, or Raila.” Miguna wrote on Twitter.
In his scathing tribute, the exiled lawyer focused on the negative side of the late president’s arguably illustrious 10-year legacy.
Miguna revisited the Artur Brothers who attacked Standard Media alleging that they were brought by the late president and his handlers.
“Mwai Kibaki’s Legacy, Raised then trashed Kenyans’ hopes. Brought Artur Brothers attacked Standard Kenya and presided over Anglo Leasing Scandal,
” Stole 2007 elections, murdered innocent Kenyans, and tribalized State HouseKenya.” Miguna wrote on Twitter.
At the same time, the outspoken barrister pointed out that the late president will be remembered for presiding over the Anglo Leasing Scandal where Kenyans lost billions of shillings.
Miguna who recently declared his support for Deputy President William Ruto in the upcoming elections reminded Kenyans that Kibaki stole the 2007 elections.
Miguna alleged that the 2007 controversial election lead to the loss of lives of many innocent Kenyans in what he says was directly caused by the former president.
The controversial lawyer said Kibaki will also be remembered for tribalizing the State House
