Allan Makana, the man who caused a stir at the Parliament Buildings during the viewing of the late Mwai Kibaki’s body showed up again during the State Funeral of the former head of state.
Makana briefly interrupted the funeral proceeding that was going on at the Nyayo stadium moments after president Uhuru Kenyatta had finished delivering his speech.
The young man allegedly from Bungoma county went to the podium to ask Archbishop Anthony Muheria of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Nyeri, who was presiding over the ceremony, to grant him a few minutes so that he could make his comments.
“Allow me just two minutes to make a few remarks,” Makana told Bishop Muheria as the security guards dashed to whisk him away.

On Tuesday this week, Makana caused drama in parliament when he showed up wailing and mourning the death of Kibaki while pleading to be allowed to view his body.
He was so emotional that he ended up removing some of his clothes. Makana said that he was a distant grandchild of Kibaki.
“Give me a chance to cry please, why are you allowing him to go soon, he is my president please, he is my president in fact he has been my distant [grandfather], I have been living with that mentality, why to go soon, why,” he wailed.
Makana said he is distantly related to Kibaki because of his resemblance to him and he even has a bald head to prove his allegations.
“People used to call me ‘Kibaki’. From the time I came to Nairobi in 2016 till now, people still call me ‘Kibaki’ (mjukuu wa Kibaki),” he alleged.
