Video: Man who claimed to be ‘Kibaki’s grandson’ begs to address nation during funeral service

The man who caused drama outside Parliament buildings on Tuesday claiming to be the late President Mwai Kibaki’s grandson on Friday begged to address the nation during the funeral service held at Nyayo Stadium.

It is not clear yet how Allan Makhana breached security and got to the podium as Archbishop Anthony Muheria made an announcement.

He could be heard whispering that he needed just two minutes to make ‘a few remarks.

“I only need just two minutes to make a few remarks,” he said.

At this point, Muheria held him close and hugged him before he was whisked away by security personnel.

He also asked the officers to ‘treat him well’ despite his actions.

“He is a son of our nation who is emotional at the loss of a President, treat him well.”

Earlier in the week, Makhana wailed uncontrollably outside Parliament where the late Mwai Kibaki was lying in state.

“Why have you gone too soon? People used to call me Kibaki in my village…Why deny me a chance to look for him [sic],” he asked.

Police officers at the scene pleaded with him to put on his shirt before being allowed to view the former President’s body but he declined.
