A video of KTN news anchor Mary Kilobi and her colleagues imitating her husband, Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli, has gone viral.
In the video which has been shared a number of times, Kilobi and Sports anchor Hassan Juma, imitated Atwoli when he was appearing for the JKLive show on Wednesday, October 20.
Atwoli, who is known for his expressions and trade mark slogans, was alleging that Kenyans would not be safe if they elected Deputy President William Ruto as their president.
He insisted on the point by pacing around the studio while posing the question a number of times.
"Jeff, in whose hands are we safe? Oh God!" he exclaimed.
While having fun at work, Kilobi and her co-worker, replicated the COTU secretary general's actions, to which some workers could be heard giggling.
During the show, Atwoli alluded to a scenario where the mountain would be dealt a raw deal, if Ruto succeeded President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Atwoli reiterated that the Mt Kenya region would have to safeguard their interests and pick a suitable candidate.
"I understand political dynamics in Kenya. I have seen popular leaders and they did not become President. People will turn up to vote in 2022 in big numbers," he added.
His sentiments did not seat well with some leaders of the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party.
Mathira Member of Parliament, Rigathi Gachagua, called on the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to summon the COTU boss over his persistent sentiments on the Deputy President's State House ambition.
