Lawyer Miguna Miguna has vehemently disagreed with Kenyans that flamboyant businessman and politician Steve Mbogo was at Dusit D2 yesterday to help after the terror attack.
Taking to Twitter, the harsh critic claimed that Steve Mbogo, to begin with, shouldn’t even be wearing a bullet proof vest or be in the vicinity with police. In fact, Miguna Miguna believes the politician might have been part of the attack.
“Steve Mbogo is not legally authorized to carry automatic weapons and dress in bullet proof vests like Rambo. This is insanity. We cannot rule out the fact that he was part of the “attack” and managed to “join” the civilian-clad “security” men at the scene. #RiversideAttack,” he said.
Help
Mbogo, speaking to the media, explained that he rushed to Dusit D2 as soon as he heard of the attack because he’s a licensed fire arm holder and wanted to help.
“I am a licensed firearms holder. I was running my errands near the dusitD2 Hotel here in Nairobi, when I learnt that the facility was under a terror attack. Because I was in a position to help, given I have good knowledge on how to handle firearms and protect myself against such situations, I went in to help in the rescue operations,” he said in an interview with Citizen TV.
Miguga then went ahead to call him a drug dealer, a reason why he was dressed in a bullet proof vest that regular citizens can’t access.
“Steve Mbogo is a known drug dealer. It matters to all law abiding citizens of Kenya that he was at Dusit D2 Hotel wielding an automatic weapon and wearing a bullet proof vest during the alleged attack – just like other drug dealers do in Colombia. #RiversideAttack” he said.
No civilian is legally permitted to own automatic weapons, nor are they legally allowed to roam around the City with them. Civilians cannot don bullet-proof vests in public. Lastly, being a licensed gun owner does not make one a police officer. Steve Mbogo is a criminal. pic.twitter.com/ozg9Jw9UrP

Drug dealers kill millions of innocent children and people annually. Drug dealers don't save lives. Only a moronic Kenyan can say such a ridiculous thing. #RiversideAttack
