The stage is... the camera is rolling.

Now, now ladies and gentlemen, Your Excellency, I think we can do better than that. Can we do it one more time? One, TWO, GO. LET'S GO. TUKO. THIS IS KENYA.
WE WANT THE WHOLE ROOM. YOU GUYS ARE JUST CLAPPING. YOU'RE NOT saying what they're saying. Can we teach them? Yes. They repeat after us. Start. You repeat after them, okay? Your Excellency. PLEASE REPEAT. EHE. UH-HUH. YOU GUYS I'M GOING TO TEACH YOU. You say the first one, they repeat. The second one, they repeat. The third. Are we together? One more time FROM THE TOP.
ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR YOU GUYS, LADIES AND NOW YOUR EXCELLENCY THE MOMENT IS HERE. Please put on all your cameras. His Excellency is about to act.
All right. Director. Yes. Thank you so much, Your Excellency, for joining us on stage. Asante sana. There's a lovely lady who gave you a script. I hope you've mastered it. There is a formality we usually have a slate in your face just tell the camera this is how we're going to do it. Okay guys, are you ready? Uh Your Excellency. Silence on set. Yes, thank you so much. We wait. YOU REMEMBER YOU'RE on set. Your Excellency, you're on set today. We're going for a take. Camera's over there. Scene two, take one, soft clap.
Stand by and Your Excellency, when you're ready, we'll call action and then you do your lines. Thank you. Eddie, over to you. And action. Lights. Camera. Action. The story is Kenya. Cut. Cut. Cut. Your Excellency, with your permission THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL. HOWEVER, WE WOULD LIKE TO CAST FOR A second take. Please give it more intentionality. Over 90% of these people in this hall are creatives and they're looking for your guidance, Your Excellency. You are the first sitting president who has joined the Kalasha Awards. So, they have been waiting for years and decades for your presence. So, one more time, Eddie, come and mark the scene and Your Excellency, slowly deliberately and intentionally. Karibu sana. Stand by. Silence on set. One for safety. Scene two take two, soft clap. Stand by. Tuko stand by. Over to you, Eddie. And action. Lights. Camera. Action.
