The Law Society of Kenya, Nelson Havi, and Former Chief Justice Willy Mutunga have moved to court seeking court orders to allow Miguna back in the country.

At a presser on Wednesday, November 16, Havi added that they were annoyed after the Kenyan Government issued new red alerts blocking the boarding of Miguna to AirFrance.

He remarked that the Attorney General, through his representative - during a petition filed at the High Court - indicated to the court that there were no red alerts.

"It must annoy us because when we were before the High Court, the Attorney General through his representative affirmatively that there were no red alerts. On their part, Air France indicated if there were any red alerts, for their removal must be directed to the government of Kenya.

"But what happened yesterday?Now Moving forward we have gone back to court and sought out raft of court orders which if granted should enable Air France and the Government of republic of Kenya to comply with those orders to allow Miguna Miguna back to the country," Havi stated.

The Former Cj echoed the sentiments adding that Air France should have been the last airline to have followed the red alerts set in place by the government.

"We assure Kenyans that we will not relent in our defense for upholding the rights of all Kenyans... The AG misinformed the courts of law... Air France should be the last airline to respond to illegal alerts," Mutunga added.

Havi then appealed to the aspirants seeking political positions to talk about upholding the constitution while castigating their economic discussions during the campaigns.

"It cannot be the order of the day that you will go to the rise every Friday and Saturday to talk about the economic model. Yet no leader wants to talk about upholding the constitution."

Miguna earlier responded to Kenyans requesting him to sneak into the country through Uganda, stating that it would justify his deportation.

"Those asking me to fly to Uganda then cross the border "illegally" into Kenya must understand that the Red Alerts stop airlines from flying me to any African country.

"Also, acting illegally would give the despot an excuse to justify his criminality and to brand me a terrorist," Miguna stated.
