A lot has been written about Miguna Miguna but the story keeps getting new twists. Having followed the developments keenly his story is one of arrogance and disrespect. Here is why:
You leave Pearson International Airport and present a passport to be stamped. You arrive at the JFK International Airport and you present the same passport and it is stamped by the US authorities. You leave the US heading for Germany. Your passport is stamped as you exit the US, and enter Germany. The same happens for the UK, the same for the UAE.All this while, you are an obedient globally exposed citizen of two countries who understands IATA rules.
Then you arrive at the JKIA. Everyone queues at the immigration desk, travel documents in hand.You jump the queue, produce your Kenyan ID, flash it at the desk and loudly demand to be let in. The official asks you to produce your passport and you call him stupid, you call him idiot, you say he is serving demagogues and a despotic duo. You tell him your are a Kenyan citizen by birth, from Nyando, born by Sure Nyanjonga.
At this time you have already caused unnecessary tension. You walk violently towards the luggage section and carry your bag. You are in violation of the law and so you are stopped.There and then, the media comes in and you take advantage and start playing victim. "Kenya is my mother Country, you cannot stop me. I will tell the truth to this despots...."You run your mouth faster than Radio Jambo football commentators.
The government gets concerned. You are causing unnecessary tension at the airport. Your lawyers are advising you but you keep berating them as silly losers. You never pay those lawyers but you are still bombarding them with words like they are your kids.
Phone calls are made, courtesy of the handshake, and special forms are delivered to you. "We will give you a special diplomatic visa reserved for visiting heads of state and official foreign delegations to gain entry, as we process your passport in accordance with the court order." Your lawyers concur that that would be fair. But you have other ideas. You grab the forms and tear them to pieces.Surely? How far can the government's patience go? Do you think it is little kids you are playing with?No one has ever done that. Do you know who you are joking with?People must be sober while reasoning.
For those up in arms against the purported infringement of Miguna Miguna's rights, please don't be in full support of impunity in the name of fighting impunity.
