Citizen TV journalist Anne Kiguta was the laughing stock on Twitter during her interview with Economist, David Ndii on Monday night after she appeared green regarding the National Super Alliance (NASA) manifesto.
Kiguta, who often interviews senior politicians and political analysts on her segment, Opinion Court, was at some point visibly angered after Ndii asked her whether she had read the Constitution.
Some Twitter users felt that Ndii was complicating fairly straightforward questions and was trying to make Kiguta appear unknowledgeable.
The Economist, who doubles up as the Opposition's technical advisor, highlighted major issues in NASA's manifesto including historical injustices and how his camp intended to handle national debt.
During the show, Ndii occasionally bashed the news anchor for asking the same question twice.
He corrected Kiguta in almost every question she asked, making her look like she had gathered interview questions from a fake NASA manifesto.
Kenyans dismissed her interviewing skills, demanding that Citizen TV finds a better interviewer to handle experts in certain fields.
Here is the interview courtesy of Citizen TV:

David Ndii has effectively unmasked Kiguta. Next time she should take a refresher course in Economics and Political Science #MondaySpecialKE
