Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN) Secretary General Seth Panyako seems to have picked a war with President Uhuru Kenyatta.

This comes barely a week after Uhuru condemned the ongoing nurses to strike coordinated by Panyako, ordering the team back to hospital, a directive that was ignored.

Speaking on News Night on Citizen TV Tuesday night, Panyako rubbished Uhuru's demand that the striking nurses respect a court order directing them to resume work.

He said that Uhuru has no moral authority to speak to that matter after his leadership defied several court orders ordering for the return of exiled lawyer Miguna Miguna to Kenya.

"If we were a country governed by the rule of law then Miguna would have been in the country. He is Kenyan. Let Uhuru bring him back," said the firebrand leader.

Miguna was exiled to Canada early last year, only days after his involvement in the mock presidential coronation of opposition leader Rails Odinga on January 30 2018.

The government has since defied about 15 court orders given in his favour, with the immigration department declaring him a foreigner who has to reapply for his citizenship.

But the controversial lawyer has remained defiant and has since picked April his year as his return date.
