The video immediately hit trending lists as Kenyans tried to figure out why the woman crawled. According to Dena, she had sent the woman to handle a few urgent matters before the video went live and she couldn’t make it back in time.

Poor timing

“I needed her (the woman crawling) to handle some urgent task. By the time the cameras had begun rolling, she was on the right side of the president. Her positioning was okay until something came up during the interview,” said Kanze Dena in an interview with eDaily.

She added that poor timing is to blame for that.

“I am blaming poor timing on the gaffe. Our arrangement was when the cameras were focused on the journalists, she would crawl to the left. Unfortunately, when she was doing that, the cameras resumed focus on the Head of State.” she said.
