Miguna was deported in March 2018 after taking part in ODM leader Raila Odinga’s unofficial swearing-in as the ‘Peoples President’ at Uhuru Park.
He was allowed to come back on October 20, 2022, after the Ruto government issued him with a new passport, lifted red alerts that had been imposed on him, and facilitated his return.
"The government of William Ruto and Rigathi Gachagua has lifted the Red Alerts Uhuru Kenyatta illegally imposed against me with the connivance of Raila Odinga," Miguna stated on October 12, 2022.
Before his return, the vocal lawyer was at loggerheads with retired President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government over his citizenship.
