Controversial lawyer Miguna Miguna has “sentenced” former Kenya Football Federation chairman Sam Nyamweya to 350 years in jail for looting the body “to death.”
In a tweet shared widely on Friday, the Canada based barrister called Nyamweya “a thief” who horned his skilled at YK’ 92, a political outfit used by the former ruling party, KANU, to counter multiparty wave.
Nyamweya ventured into football leadership, serving as general secretary and chairman of the federation after the political sojourn.
His rule, which came to stop in 2016 with election of his Nick Mwendwa, was marred by ill treatment of national team players and general mismanagement.
“This is an image of Sam Nyamweya, a thief who learnt his trade from Cyrus Jirongo at the YK’92, a violent, barbaric and criminal outfit Daniel arap Moi established to help him cling to power.”
“Nyamweya looted the KFF to death. I hereby sentence this criminal to 350 years in jail.”
