Miguna Miguna's scathing announcement that added more products to the National Super Alliance (NASA) economic boycott targets might have earned him his unceremonious ejection from the country. 

Prominent blogger Robert Alai on Wednesday claimed the self-proclaimed National Resistance Movement (NRM) general's deportation on Tuesday night was well funded by Bidco East Africa, and Haco Industries. 

"I am told that some businessmen whose products were announced as part of those to be boycotted by Miguna, funded his deportation. Bidco and Haco industries paid a good sum to have Miguna 'taught a lesson'," Alai wrote in a tweet. 

On January 24, NASA called on supporters to boycott products from Haco Tiger Industries, a firm linked to billionaire businessman Chris Kirubi.

While making the pronouncement Miguna Miguna said the named firm was a key player in alleged electoral malpractice in the August 2017 elections.

”We have unveiled a new company which NASA supporters must resist. It is called Haco Tigers Industries, belonging to one Chris Kirubi,” Miguna said while addressing the media at Okoa Kenya secretariat in Nairobi.

He added: “We are encouraging our supporters not to buy products and services so that we send a clear message to the world that impunity does not pay.”

The former Nairobi governor aspirant was ejected from Kenya on Tuesday night, at a time when he was facing charges over his participation in Raila Odinga's January 30 oath.

The government through Interior Ministry Communication Head Mwenda Njoka claimed that "Miguna denounced his Kenyan citizenship years back, acquired Canadian citizenship and never bothered to reclaim Kenyan citizenship in the legally prescribed manner."

Mr Njoka noted that Miguna did not disclose that he had another country’s citizenship despite being a lawyer who should have known better.
