Deported Canada-based Kenyan scholar and lawyer Dr Miguna Miguna, who prefers to be called, General Miguna, has announced that he will return back to his motherland on the 11th of January 2022.

The ‘I am Not Boarding’ General was deported from the country last year after a mock-swearing in of Raila Odinga as the People’s President on 30th January 2018.

Yesterday, he took to Twitter to announce that he will be landing at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) in Nairobi on January 11th Next year.

General Miguna was initially deported in February last year days after his arrest by Immigration Officers who later said that Miguna, a Kenyan by birth, was in Kenya illegally after allegedly renouncing his Kenyan citizenship while acquiring a Canadian passport.

In March 2018, General Miguna attempted to return to Kenya via JKIA. His attempts were futile as he was banished and shoved in the Fly Emirates planes after spending several hours at the JKIA-based detention facility.

In December 2018, the High Court ruled that Miguna is a Kenyan by birth and holding a Canadian passport does not deny him his birthright.
