Opposition activist Miguna Miguna has now shifted his attention to Tanzanian President John Pombe Magufuli.
In a tweet on Sunday, the former Nairobi gubernatorial aspirant questioned Magufuli's sentry and stay in office, claiming that he rigged his way in.
The firebrand lawyer alleged that Magufuli's election in 2015 was facilitated by his Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM), which, according to him, helped him steal the election.
He further dragged opposition leader Raila Odinga into the issue, bashing him for remaining mum and failing to condemn it.
"When the CCM stole the 2015 Tanzanian election and imposed John Pombe Magufuli on Tanzanians, Raila Odinga should have condemned it," he said.
According to Miguna, Magufuli played a big role in Raila's March 9 truce with President Uhuru Kenyatta, claiming that he pressured the former Prime Minister into surrendering to the Jubilee administration.
He claimed that Magufuli seeks to benefit from the reconciliation and is set for some privileges.
"That way, Magufuli wouldn't have pressured Raila Odinga to surrender to Uhuru Kenyatta in exchange for a few tokens. We must be fearless and lead by example," he added.
Raila is deemed close friends with the Tanzanian Head of State.
The reconciliation has since seen a major transformation in the nation, as despite cooling down the political temperatures, it has as well paralysed the opposition's operations.
