Self proclaimed general of the National Resistance Movement(NRM), Miguna Miguna has issued a stern warning to Deputy President William Ruto in reference to his relationship with President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Through his Social media platforms, Miguna compared the current situation between the two allies to the one between the country’s first president who is also Uhuru’s father, Jomo Kenyatta and his first vice President who is also Raila Odinga’s father Jaramogi Oginga Odinga.
The lawyer was deported to Canada earlier this year and claimed that President Uhuru Kenyatta is using Raila Odinga to Sabotage DP William Ruto in the same manner that Jomo Kenyatta used the late Tom Mboya to sabotage Jaramogi Oginga Odinga back in the year 1966.
HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF, first, as a farce, and second, as a tragedy. Don't say that you were not warned.
In 1966, the autocratic Jomo Kenyatta a.ka. Johnston Kamau used the mercurial Tom Joseph Mboya to… https://t.co/B4uvkc1MVh

This comes after the now much publicized handshake between the two rivals earlier this year, a move that many believe did not include the Deputy President.
In 1966, the autocratic Jomo used Tom Mboya to sabotage his VP, Jaramogi, in exactly the same manner that Jomo's tyrannical son @UKenyatta is using Jaramogi's greedy and cowardly son, @RailaOdinga, to sabotage his DP @WilliamsRuto. Jomo murdered Mboya immediately after using him.

The late Mzee Jomo Kenyatta and his then Vice President Jaramogi Odinga fell out publicly barely four years into their reign owning to ideological differences and Miguna claims Tom Mboya was the key catalyst to this fallout, aided by Jomo Kenyatta.
Below is Miguna’s statement in full:
HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF, first, as a farce, and second, as a tragedy. Don’t say that you were not warned.
In 1966, the autocratic Jomo Kenyatta a.k.a. Johnston Kamau used the mercurial Tom Joseph Mboya to sabotage his then Vice-President, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga, in exactly the same manner that Jomo’s tyrannical son Uhuru Kenyatta is currently using Jaramogi’s greedy and cowardly son, Raila Odinga, to sabotage his Deputy President, William Samoei Ruto.
Jomo Kenyatta murdered Tom Joseph Mboya immediately after having used him.
Miguna Miguna has been a constant critic of the the handshake between opposition chief Raila Odinga and President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Fellow Kenyans: Shaking hands with despots, tyrants, thieves, tribalists and murderers and/or collaborating with them is NOT a public policy statement nor is it a commitment to social justice, democracy, rule of law and constitutionalism.
