In a strongly worded statement, he accused some prominent politicians of showing solidarity with one another while ignoring the suffering of ordinary Kenyans.
Miguna mentioned former President Uhuru Kenyatta, Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua and Linda Mwananchi leader Edwin Sifuna among leaders he described as opportunistic.
He argued that their public appearances together should not automatically be taken as evidence that they share the same political goals or are committed to defending citizens.
In his message, Miguna suggested that Kenyans should not be surprised to see the same politicians enjoying friendly moments with President William Ruto and other government allies.
He wrote that tomorrow Kenyans would see them "hugging, kissing and laughing" with Ruto and businessman Oscar Sudi.
His remarks appeared aimed at questioning the consistency of their political positions.
The lawyer also raised concerns about how political leaders respond when ordinary citizens are abducted, disappear or are killed.
He mentioned Abshir Abdi and Albert Ojwang, arguing that the leaders he criticised rarely demonstrate the same level of public support for affected families.
He questioned why politicians could stand together during political celebrations but fail to show up when citizens need solidarity.
Miguna concluded by urging Kenyans to change how they view political leaders and stop supporting individuals without examining their actions.
He argued that citizens should demand accountability rather than being carried away by political friendships and public displays of unity.
His statement comes amid continuing discussions about opposition cooperation and the country's political direction ahead of the 2027 General Election.
