Will Miguna 'Slaughter' Matiang’i? Explosive Citizen TV Interview Set to Expose Dark Past

Outspoken lawyer and political firebrand Miguna Miguna is set to light up Kenyan airwaves with a long-awaited live interview on Citizen TV. Granted in response to Fred Matiang’i’s recent soft-glove appearance on the same platform, this interview will not be business as usual. Miguna has promised to dismantle what he calls “whitewashed lies” told by the former Interior Cabinet Secretary. What awaits Matiang’i is not a polite rebuttal. It’s a politically loaded ambush from a man who has been silenced, exiled, and drugged—but never defeated. Kenyans are about to witness a political reckoning, broadcast live. With the 2027 elections drawing closer and Matiang’i rumored to be eyeing the presidency, this interview could be a turning point. Miguna won’t be soft. He won’t play nice. He is coming with the scars of exile and the fury of truth. It shouldn’t just be a rebuttal. It should be a political slaughter. And Matiang’i will be on the chopping block.

Miguna Miguna’s interview will be more than a personal vindication—it is a public trial of Fred Matiang’i’s controversial legacy. Miguna had requested an opportunity to respond after Matiang’i was given what he described as a platform to spew “unchecked propaganda” about his time in office from 2013 to 2022. His demand was simple: give me airtime to correct the record. Citizen TV agreed. Linus Kaikai, Editorial Director at Royal Media Services, confirmed Miguna will appear live within seven days. Miguna, currently based in Ontario, Canada, will connect remotely. But the geographical distance will not soften his blows. Miguna's fury is fresh. His scars are deep. And he speaks with receipts. He was the victim of a violent state operation led by Matiang’i. After presiding over Raila Odinga’s symbolic swearing-in in January 2018, Miguna was arrested, locked up, ignored by courts, drugged, and deported. All this while being a Kenyan by birth. Matiang’i’s government said Miguna had ceased being Kenyan after obtaining Canadian citizenship. But under the 2010 Constitution, dual citizenship is legal. Miguna had never renounced his Kenyan roots. What followed were legal battles, airport standoffs, and international condemnation. Now, the man Matiang'i tried to erase is back—and ready to fight. Miguna Holds Corruption Files That Could Destroy Careers But this is not just about deportation. Miguna is a combative political figure with a reputation for collecting corruption files like trophies. And in his own words, “Matiang’i is not clean.” Miguna’s interview is expected to revisit the infamous Ruaraka land saga—a Ksh 1.5 billion scandal that rocked the Ministry of Interior and Education. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) publicly named Matiang’i and then PS Belio Kipsang as the government officials responsible for facilitating the fraudulent payout to a well-connected businessman, Francis Mburu Mungai. Mburu died in February 2025, but his death has reignited public anger over unresolved justice. Mburu, according to court records and investigative reports, bribed Matiang’i with Ksh 300 million to help process illegal compensation for public land. That land belonged to Ruaraka High School. Now that Mburu is dead, will Miguna use his Citizen TV interview to spill the remaining secrets? Sources close to Miguna say he has files, names, and exact figures on how the scam was executed. And he intends to go public. Matiang’i has denied any wrongdoing. But public suspicion remains. And with the 2027 elections looming—and Matiang’i eyeing the presidency—any exposure from Miguna could be politically fatal. Rigathi Gachagua and the Company Matiang’i Keeps Miguna has also made it clear that his beef with Matiang’i isn’t just historical—it’s ideological. Matiang’i’s recent attempts to rebrand himself as a clean, reformist presidential hopeful do not sit well with Miguna. Especially not when he’s seen cozying up to politicians like Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, one of the most controversial and tribal figures in modern Kenyan politics. Miguna has never minced his words about Gachagua. He calls him a “billionaire bandit,” a man who amassed wealth through dirty tenders, and allegedly looted his late brother’s widow in Nyeri. Gachagua’s name has repeatedly surfaced in graft investigations, including a court case involving over Ksh 200 million in unexplained wealth. By associating with Gachagua, Matiang’i’s clean image gets even murkier. Miguna is expected to hammer this point during the interview—connecting Matiang’i’s ambitions to the corrupt and tribal politics that have ruined Kenya’s public institutions. If he lands that punch, it could destroy Matiang’i’s 2027 dreams before they even begin. Will Miguna 'Slaughter' Matiang’i? Why He Must  Tear Into Matiang’i in Explosive Citizen TV Showdown Citizen TV is giving Miguna a platform. But the question is whether the country is ready for what he has to say. This isn’t about a man ranting from exile. Miguna’s grievances are backed by court orders, legal documentation, and a documented trail of state abuse. What he says on that screen will not just be personal—it will be prosecutorial. He has the power to remind Kenyans what happened under Matiang’i’s watch—the beatings, the court defiance, the poison politics, and the Ksh billions that vanished without trace. He also has the power to expose the links between Matiang’i and today’s dirty politics—where alliances with crooks like Gachagua spell doom for any talk of a clean future. So, will Miguna slaughter Matiang’i? If history, firepower, and momentum are anything to go by—the knife is already sharpened. And Miguna is not coming to miss.
