Miguna Miguna blocked from returning to Kenya
Controversial lawyer Miguna Miguna has again been blocked from his much-awaited return to the county after the Kenyan government reportedly issued fresh red alerts to Air France which Miguna had planned to board from Berlin.
This is to inform Kenyans and the world that @airfrance officials at the check-in counter at the Berlin Brandenburg Airport have just informed me that the Government of Kenya sent them a “red Alert” this morning that they cannot fly me to Nairobi. I’m waiting for a copy. pic.twitter.com/vngmR1l5BX

On Friday, the High court declined to lift the red alerts issued by the Kenyan government. According to a ruling by Judge Hedwig Ong’undi, the burden of proof was on Miguna to provide evidence to prove the existence of the red alerts.
“There is no evidence to prove the alerts exist. This court cannot rule on speculation to grant the orders he is seeking. Case dismissed,” Justice Ong’undi said.
Miguna who holds dual citizenship of Kenya and Canada was first deported in February 2018 after swearing-in Raila Odinga as the ‘Peoples President’ at Uhuru Park on January 30 2018.
