Log off Twitter and do something productive with your time, Boniface Mwangi tells MigunaBoniface Mwangi bashes Miguna for his 'know-it-all' tendency
Human rights activist Boniface Mwangi on Wednesday came out to tell off lawyer Miguna Miguna over his tweets.
In a series of engagements, Mwangi asked Miguna to log off Twitter and do something constructive with his time.
The former Starehe MP aspirant bashed the former Nairobi gubernatorial aspirant over "his prior knowledge of everything that happens in online".
The Twitter spat started when Miguna claimed that the late Kibra MP Ken Okoth never wished for his remains to be cremated.
Mwangi said Miguna has a tendency of making it look like he knows everything and goes ahead to give an opinion basing it as the truth.
"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!" he said.
Mwangi asked the Canadian-based Kenyan lawyer to respect what other people wish for in their life and death.
"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," he responded.
However, Miguna rubbished claims of the existence of a will from the late Okoth.
"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," Miguna asked.
However, Mwangi asked Miguna to always stop assuming things.
"@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," said Mwangi.
The two leaders engaged in a heated exchange of words with each other advising the other on what is best for them.
