Activist Boniface Mwangi has destroyed the exiled lawyer Miguna Miguna in an online battle.
Boniface Mwangi has taken the bull by its horns telling Miguna Miguna to log off twitter and do something constructive with his time. He goes to question his intelligence claiming that Miguna has prior knowledge to almost everything online basing on his own assumptions.
.@MigunaMiguna assumption is the lowest level of knowledge. You assume you know everything about everyone. Miguna, for you to continue being taken seriously, choose your battles. You comment on anything and everything. Log off twitter and do something productive with your time. https://t.co/ldyyMoOYuI

Mwangi continues by retorting that Miguna has an ingrained tendency of blocking anyone who disagrees with his opinion yet he call himself ‘NRM General.’
Generals don’t spend their time fighting with foot soldiers and busy bodies. You wake up everyday to fight and block anyone who disagrees with you. Instead of agonising and shouting on twitter everyday, use that time to strategise. I rest my case! https://t.co/joWom873cE

Their fight was ignited by the cremation of the late Kibra MP Ken Okoth.
According to lawyer Miguna Miguna cremation is not in line with the African culture. He goes ahead to argue that even Jesus Christ and Mohamed were buried and not cremated.
Jesus Christ and Mohamed were buried; not cremated. Americans, French and other Europeans spend billions of dollars to retrieve, return and bury their fallen soldiers in huge cemeteries. There is no African culture that cremates. We must honour our African culture. Period!

Boniface Mwangi harshly dissented with Miguna claiming that the will of the dead must be respected at all costs. Mwangi goes ahead to state that cremation is affordable and saves time.
Miguna, let’s respect people’s wishes. Ken Okoth chose to be cremated, his body, his choice. Cremation saves time, land and money, you don’t need to do a burial fundraiser. The bible says, dust to dust and ash to ash. Finally, not all Africans believe in Jesus Christ and Mohamed. https://t.co/MrOx2cpKX7

Miguna Miguna goes ahead to claim that Boniface Mwangi is peddling lies and myths which are currently blindfolding Kenyans. Miguna retorted that Ken Okoth did not even confide to her mother that he wanted to be cremated.
That’s a myth peddled by people like you without any proof. Have you seen Ken Okoth’s will? No. It does not exist either because someone is hiding it or he did not leave behind a will. We cannot respect conjured up things. Okoth did not tell his mother that he should be cremated. https://t.co/pNA94d3xRy

Kenyans online have cheered their fight which has ended up eliciting a lot of reactions. Most of them asking why has Miguna not blocked Boniface Mwangi because nobody questions his intelligence and survives.
Shouting few words of English doesn’t make one a general. Calling Miguna a general is like calling Ruto an Archbishop just because he goes to the “church” every weekend.

Please don’t and never use “General” and Miguna in the same sentence. Unless we are generally arguing about the sizes of belly buttons. Bullshit. Twitter is no place for Generals.
