On May 12, 2018, a protocol dispute briefly threatened to overshadow a tree-planting event in Nairobi attended by President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy, William Ruto.
The disagreement involved Nairobi governor Mike Sonko, who was seen objecting to the arrangement at the function. The incident unfolded in front of the two national leaders as the event was underway, creating an awkward moment at a ceremony that was meant to focus on tree planting.
The source clip shows the tension emerging around protocol rather than the main agenda of the day. While the event continued, the dispute drew attention because of the presence of the President and Deputy President at the same venue.
Nyakundi Report is preserving the archive record as presented in the source video, which framed the moment as a public display of frustration during a high-profile state event.
