Miguna argued that alcoholic drinks should not be described as “uji,” insisting that the comparison gives alcohol an undeserved positive image.
In a strongly worded statement, Miguna defended porridge, describing it as a nutritious drink consumed by millions of ordinary citizens.
He questioned why such a valued drink should be mentioned alongside alcohol, arguing that the two are completely different and should not be treated as similar.
Miguna also directed sharp personal criticism at Uhuru, describing him as a drunkard and suggesting that he should seek rehabilitation.
His comments reflected his displeasure with what he considers the normalisation and glorification of alcohol consumption by influential political leaders.
The lawyer further challenged both Uhuru and Ruto to stop presenting alcohol in a way that could make excessive drinking appear acceptable.
He maintained that public figures should be careful about the language they use, especially when discussing issues that affect society.
Concluding his statement, Miguna declared, “Telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
His remarks have added another dimension to the political exchange between Uhuru and Ruto, shifting attention to their comments about alcohol and the use of the word “uji.”
