Exiled Kenyan lawyer Miguna Miguna says he has finally received his Kenyan passport following a directive from President William Ruto.
Miguna has been living in Canada after a dramatic deportation in 2018.
Moreover, the outspoken lawyer took to his social media accounts, saying that he is now waiting for the government to lift the Red Alert Advisory it issued to airlines not to carry him back to the country.
“1687 days after Uhuru Kenyatta, Raila Odinga, Fred Matiang’i, Karanja Kibicho, and Gordon Kihalangwa conspired to illegally seize and destroy my Kenyan Passport, President William Ruto has had a new one delivered to me. Waiting for the lifting of red alerts,” he noted.
Lawyer Miguna Miguna was deported in March 2018 after swearing in then opposition leader Raila Odinga as the People’s President.

Furthermore, the self-declared leader of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) had earlier in September written to the Head of Public Service Joseph Kinyua demanding facilitation to travel to Nairobi for President William Ruto’s swearing-in which was held on September 13.

Likewise, his attempt to travel back to Kenya in November 2021 hit a dead end after Air France declined to fly him over a Red Alert.
Furthermore, the Kenyan Lawyer had secured several court orders directing the government to provide him with a new Kenyan passport after security agencies defaced his passport following his arrest and consequent deportation in 2018.
