Hours after Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN) Secretary General Seth Panyako dared President Uhuru Kenyatta to bring back exiled lawyer Miguna Miguna, the self-proclaimed National Resistance Movement (NRM) leader has hailed him for his firm stand on the ongoing nurses’ strike.
Speaking on News Night on Citizen TV on Tuesday night, Panyako warned that President Kenyatta has no mandate to order nurses back to work because of court orders yet he has also disobeyed several orders as far as the return of Miguna Miguna.
"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 Panyako.
Miguna, who was deported for taking part in the mock swearing-in of ODM leader Raila Odinga, has now said that Panyako deserves credit for being bold enough to withstand pressure from the Head of State
“Bravo, Seth Panyako, the SG of the Kenya National Union of Nurses, for fearlessly championing the interests of the over-worked and underpaid healthcare workers; for telling Uhuru Kenyatta that he must obey court orders; and that he is not above the law,” he Tweeted.
Miguna opines that Kenyatta’s rule is one of the worst in the history of this nation.
