Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua on Wednesday left the crowd in stitches after he claimed National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula was speaking too much English.
While speaking at National Prayer Breakfast on Wednesday, the DP jokingly told Wetang'ula to avoid speaking too much English at such events.
"Speaker of the National Assembly, I'm grateful you invited me but next time when you invite me for an occasion, I request you to be considerate upunguze kizungu kidogo, niweze kuelewa kile ambacho unasema (Be mindful of your use of English language so that I can understand what you are saying)," the DP said.
During his speech, Wetang'ula quoted former South African President the late Nelson Mandela.
"The true glory of living lies not in never stumbling, but in rising every time we fall."
He said reconciliation binds the country together and ensures harmonious coexistence.
He urged Kenyans to embrace the spirit of reconciliation with God and their fellow human beings.
Gachagua said this year's National Prayer Breakfast theme came at the right time as Kenyans need to reconcile.
He said President William Ruto became the President because of forgiveness and reconciliation.
Wetang'ula said they are deliberate about uniting the country.
“Reconciliation is not an easy task as it invites us to look inward and accept our shortcomings,” he said.
