Embattled opposition's National Resistance Movement (NRM) self-declared General Miguna Miguna has distanced himself from a recent push for the separation of a part of the country.
In a tweet on Saturday, the outspoken barrister, who is pushing for the ouster of the President Uhuru Kenyatta-led Jubilee administration, said that the movement has at no point participated in the secession debate.
He said that the push was a campaign initiated and led by the National Super Alliance (NASA) strategist David Ndii, maintaining that he is neither part nor interested in it.
He accused a section of the media of spreading the baseless rumour, naming several dailies as culprits in the scheme.
"The compromised media @dailynation, @TheStarKenya and @StandardKenya are propagating falsehoods. #NRMKe has never supported secession. That's @DavidNdii's artificial baby," he said.
Miguna maintained that NRM's main goal is the installment of proper electoral laws in the nation and the dethronement of Kenyatta's despotic leadership.
"The #NRMKe is commited to ELECTORAL JUSTICE and THE REMOVAL FROM POWER of the ILLEGITIMATE DESPOTS viva," further read the tweet.
Before his deportation to Canada in early February, Miguna closely worked with Ndii to reclaim opposition leader Raila Odinga's win in the August 8 2017 presidential race, allegedly stolen through a rigging scheme masterminded by the national poll body IEBC.
The struggle culminated to suggestions by a section of the NASA fraternity that the nation be divided into two as a remedy to the culture of political domination.
