Lawyer Miguna Miguna has announced his expected time of arrival in Kisumu.
This comes a few days after he announced that the lakeside city will mark his first visit following his return from Canada where he had been in forced exile for almost five years.
In a statement on Thursday, Miguna said his flight from Nairobi is expected to land in Kisumu on Friday at 3 pm.
He added that it has been a long struggle returning home.
"My KQ flight from JKIA to Kisumu International Airport is scheduled to land at 15:00 Hours (3PM) on Friday, October 28th. See you in Kisumu, patriots. It has been a long and arduous struggle to return home. Freedom is here! Viva!" Miguna said.
He first announced his planned visit to Kisumu his home county on Tuesday.
"I will arrive in Kisumu on Friday, October 28th, 2022. Kenya is marwa!" he said on Twitter.
On Wednesday, Miguna said it will be a honourable visit as he had not met his family for a long time.
"Going home, especially for a person who has been forcefully exiled for 5 years, is not an act of war. It is an act of peace, emotional and physical restoration," he said.
He urged his rivals not to send goons to stone him as he is going to mourn his family members who passed on while he was away.
"Please don't mobilize unemployed youth to stone me on Friday. I'm going to mourn my family members," he said.
Miguna who return from Canada on Thursday last week was received by friends and relatives who had lined up to welcome him.
He was forced out of the country in 2018 and has since not been able to get back into the country despite several attempts.
Court orders instructing he be allowed into the country were ignored by Former President Uhuru Kenyatta's regime.
Red alerts were also imposed against him thus blocking his chances of travelling back.
The alerts were however lifted after President William Ruto took power, Miguna announced.
