Kenyans who appear to have been blindsided by the deportation have been quick to react to the dramatic development.

''They have deported the general. I am not shocked, I knew they would do it,'' Juma Amadi posted.

''Surely, why have they deported him yet the court had ordered for him to be produced in court. This is impunity. Totally disgusted'' Caroline Munuve tweeted.

''This is the height of impunity,''Johnstone Munuve wrote.

''Goodness gracious! They have finally deported him.'' Caroline Ambuyo tweeted.

''While Miguna Miguna is being deported in Cold, The Person whom he risked his life to swear is in Karen listening to Madilu system and Watching Breaking News as he is Deported, Slayqueens hii ndio mnaitanga Karma is a Bitch ama?'' Ombima posted.

''Finally, they have overpowered the general. He is on his way to Dubai as we speak. This is sickening,'' Lee Omondi posted.

''He thought he was powerful than the government. Wanajua hawajui,'' Chris the don tweeted.

''You pay the price, but you get the value. Uh! I cry for you MM'' Titus Juma posted on Facebook.

The development adds another twist to a protracted, fast-paced drama that saw the controversial lawyer and socio-political commentator held at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for hours on end.

This comes in the wake of a court decision implicating government officials in defying court orders obligating them to produce Miguna in court.

Immigration officials had demanded that Miguna append his signature to certain documents to be allowed into the country but his lawyers insisted that he would not sign the documents.
