Kenyans on Twitter were have been treated to spats of twitter beef between Miguna Miguna and Raila Odinga’s aide Silas Jakakimba.
The spat was stirred by a tweet by political analyst Mutahi Ngunyi praising Raila for being a Statesman over his reconciliation with Deputy President William Ruto during Thursday’s National Prayers day.
I never THOUGHT I would admit this TRUTH so soon: That RAILA ODINGA is a TRUE statesman. It takes a BIG MAN to do what RAILA has DONE. Bravo Babaman! @RailaOdinga https://t.co/MIZwzFHAfI

A twitter user then hit out at Raila claiming the reconciliation was a hoax meant to keep off Miguna from ascending to the threshold of Luo leadership.
The sentiments were not taken lightly by Jakakimba who said Miguna cannot take the mantle from Raila.
Miguna in his fiery self hit back. Their spat comes barely a week after the two went head to head with Miguna down dressing Jakakimba for tweeting on his timeline in dholuo.
I need to understand why this deserves a RETWEET. There is NO way my Snr @MigunaMiguna or anyone else for that matter can DETHRONE @RailaOdinga from ANY seat today. Such deceitful diversions won't ground the honest premises necessary for pushing for just causes. I MIGHT be wrong

Dear Jakom @RailaOdinga: Thank you for fighting against dictatorship for the past 30 years. You are now tired and have recently surrendered to tyrants. Retreat to your Opoda Farm. Let young, vibrant, committed and courageous revolutionaries pursue justice. Yours sincerely, #NRMKe

Jakakimba: The official language of @Twitter is English, not DhoLuo. Kenya belongs to more than 42 communities. Kindly refrain from addressing me with one ethnic language that millions of Kenyans don't understand. Let's fight for justice. Not for a person. #STOPTheseTHIEVES
