Miguna hits at the Government over diplomatic ties with Somalia

Miguna

The self-declared National Resistance Movement (NRM) General Miguna Miguna, has accused Kenyan government of “hypocrisy” in the ongoing diplomatic wrangles with the Somali government.

He challenged President Uhuru Kenyatta to claim ownership of Migingo Island which he alleged has been taken over by Ugandan Government.

Miguna also alleged the government was using ‘maginary war threats’ in order to avoid dealing with real issues affecting the country.

Through his twitter account, the controversial lawyer and author has sharply differed with the government’s decision to abruptly cut off diplomatic ties with Somali over alleged auctioning of oil gas and blocks falling within the Kenyan maritime territory.

The Kenyan Government recalled its ambassador to Somalia Lucas Tumbo and also ordered Somalia ambassador to Kenya Mohamud Nur, to leave Nairobi with immediate effect, on Saturday, February 16 .

This was after the government through the Ministry of Interior accused Somali of auctioning oil gas and blocks falling within the Kenyan maritime territory near its border on February 7, 2019 in a deal struck in London.
