In June 1990 Bishop Muge alongside his Maseno counterpart Bishop Okulu held a press conference and they demanded the immediate resignation of President Daniel arap Moi to be followed by a free and fair election after that to get a new president for the country. At the time it was perhaps the most bold statement that had ever been made against the dreaded regime. The country was in shock and in those days the politics was such that KANU politicians competed with each other as to who would be seen more loyal than the other and of course in such circumstances many times politicians went overboard with their pronouncements and declarations. And this is exactly what happened when on 12th August 1990 when Labor minister Peter Okondo at the time came out and warned Bishop Muge that was he to step anywhere in Western province and especially in Busia (Okondo's turf) he would see fire and most probably would not leave that area alive.
Now Bishop Muge was not the kind of person to hesitate or even think twice when it came to fulfilling his duty in serving GOD and man and so his response to Okondo's statement was predictable. He told the minister that his blood his innocent blood and that it would haunt him forever if anything happened to him.
Two days later, on the 14th of August 1990 Bishop Muge visited the Busia diocese to a rousing welcome from Kenyans. He had become an extremely popular public figure to the politically suppressed Kenyans of the time.
