Handshake was pre-planned

By Mercy Imali

Firebrand lawyer Miguna Miguna has sensationally claimed that the handshake between President Uhuru Kenyatta and his bitter rival Raila Odinga was pre-planned.

The controversial political activist reiterated the deal was already in place by the time of the opposition leader’s controversial swearing-in at Uhuru Park on January 30, 2018.

“Raila did not want to come to the event at Uhuru Park and he only came at 3pm, when he feared that I would take the crowd at the venue in a direction that they would not be able to control,” Dr Miguna told Citizen TV in Washington DC.

To add further insult to injury, He claimed Mr Odinga’s entourage came to the park without the speech he had been asked to draft for the occasion, among other items.

In the no-holds-barred interview, the politician further said the event was plagued by lack of coordination as the opposition leader had developed cold feet.
