00:00 When our tourists come,

00:02 I'm about Cameron Billy,

00:04 I'm about Viatu,

00:06 I'm about shopping,

00:08 I'm about Kare,

00:10 I'm about

00:12 I'm about

00:14 Cameron Billy,

00:16 I'm about perfume,

00:18 We harass our visitors when they come to this country,

00:20 at the airport, and then we wonder

00:22 why they don't come back. You go to Rwanda,

00:24 they don't harass you, when in Rwanda they collect taxes.

00:26 You go to South Africa,

00:28 they don't harass you, when in South Africa they collect taxes.

00:30 You go to Dubai, they don't harass you.

00:32 Why are they harassing our visitors here?

00:34 You know, mama natura, chupiake,

00:36 nekwa kando, naatuwa kere,

00:38 atarani, they'll never come back to Kenya.

00:40 And we wonder

00:42 why did we come to number four, why are people not coming to Kenya?

00:44 So you have to present the right optics,

00:46 people have to get that warm feeling.

00:48 You go to Singapore today,

00:50 nobody harasses you.

00:52 You go to the seashells,

00:54 you go to the Maldives,

00:56 nobody opens your bag.

00:58 You're a tourist.

01:00 You know what I mean?

01:02 So those are some of the things that we need to correct,

01:04 and now you have the right leader to correct them for you.

01:06 You know?

01:08 [applause]

01:10 And we'll ask them, whether you tell us we close down

01:12 the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife,

01:14 and focus on other things, come on,

01:16 but if you want us to collect money,

01:18 and we get this country to be rich,

01:20 then stop harassing our products.

01:22 You know? So that our product can come here

01:24 and do not harass your person.

01:26 Mwazuri.

01:28 [laughter]

01:30 [silence]
