Mark Masai carried the night in the state of the nation address hosted by President Uhuru Kenyatta in Mombasa. The state of the nation which saw the state invite few journalists for a question and answer segment with the President raised a lot of pertinent issues.
The issue of National GDP got the NTV journalist Mark Masai in a heated exchange with the president of the republic. Mark Masai pinned down the President to tell Kenyans the GDP as it stands right now together with the national debt.
The President directed the same question back to Mark Masai. The response sent many people in stitches. Mark Masai courageously responded to the President that;”Im not in Japan…not interested.” That was a bomb.
The exchange even prompted the President to promise Mark Masai a copy of the contract the country has with the Chinese government.
HERE IS THE RESPONSE

Thanks, Mark Masai: The Japanese Government does not plunder its economy; it provides services to its people. The Japanese PM accounts fully for both its debt and revenues to the Japenese. The tyrant @UKenyatta loots Kenya's economy, murders her citizens and steals elections.
