Dr. Miguna Miguna boasts a global following of 1.7 million, surpassing traditional Kenyan media outlets, and anticipates reaching 5 million followers within six months. He asserts that this reach eliminates the need for 'mediocre media outlets' to spread their 'revolutionary destructions.' He urges supporters to use their own channels and ignore mainstream media propaganda.
Miguna declares that Uhuru Kenyatta has waged war on progressives, patriots, the 2010 Kenyan constitution, democracy, good governance, and the rule of law. He accuses Kenyatta of trashing human rights, attempting to capture the judiciary, and wanting to perpetuate his 'illegitimate power' similar to his father. He also claims Kenyatta is using Odinga to establish a 'one-man militarized dictatorship.'
Miguna dismisses Kenyatta's appointment of a military head, stating that the military's power lies with the rank and file, not the top brass. He cites historical examples of revolutionaries like Jerry Rawlings and Thomas Sankara, who were lower-ranking officers. He believes revolutionaries in the military often support progressive students, intellectuals, workers, teachers, and ordinary citizens.
Miguna alleges that Kenyatta is using Odinga and other 'crooks' to cling to power indefinitely. He labels Kenyatta as a 'drunkard' who wants to change the constitution to stay in office. He accuses Kenyatta of stealing 40 billion Kenyan shillings in one month while people died in floods and landslides. He further criticizes Kenyatta for hosting parties at State House, violating his own social distancing rules, and claims COVID-19 is a 'cover' to control Kenya.
Miguna declares 'war on Kenyatta' and calls for the use of 'all means necessary,' specifically social media platforms like WhatsApp and Telegram. He draws parallels to 19th-century revolutionaries who used pamphlets and shortwave radio, emphasizing the importance of modern communication tools for their cause.
