Lawyer Miguna Miguna now demands that he be facilitated to return to the country to attend the swearing-in of President-elect William Ruto.
In a letter dated September 7, Miguna through his lawyer Adrian Kamotho, wrote to the Assumption of the Office of the President Committee chairperson Joseph Kinyua, saying it would be against the Constitution to carry on with their business, without any reasonable regard for his plight in exile.
"Thus, your Committee has an overarching duty and legal obligation to ensure that our client is facilitated to attend the swearing-in ceremony of the 5th president, His Excellency William Samoei Ruto without fail," the letter reads.
Kamotho said Miguna has the right, as a legitimate citizen to be present at the inauguration on September 13.
Miguna requested Kinyua to confirm that there are no red alerts barring his return.
In November 2021, Miguna was expected to return to the country but could not be, due to the alerts.
He moved to court seeking to have the alerts removed but his case was invalidated.
Miguna also asked for a new passport for his homecoming.
"May you also get back to us a replacement copy of our client's passport in lieu of the one that was perforated and defaced by the state official who indiscriminately violated our client's rights," the letter adds.
Miguna was first deported on February 26, 2018, and then again on March 29, 2018.
