Miguna Miguna has to reapply for the Kenyan citizenship that he lost in 1998, the immigration department now says.
The self-proclaimed NRM General was denied entry into Kenya after returning from Canada to where he was deported on February 6. This concerned his in Nasa leader Raila Odinga’s self-inauguration as the People’s President.
In a statement, the department said Miguna automatically lost his Kenyan citizenship that year when he acquired that of Canda as the country did not allow dual citizenship.
“To enable Miguna regularise his citizenship status, the department has this morning dispatched the requisite application forms to the JKIA for [him] to fill [them] for processing,” the department said on Tuesday.
Miguna spent his night at the departure lounge after refusing to fly to Dubai.
