"'I'm press from Equity, see the label, the situation you can see, there are no cars, only Mahindra," he said when asked what kind of situation was in the CBD.
When asked what the term press means, he said in his broken English that it is a communication centre that 'comes together'.
He hilariously gave himself away when asked what was happening, after he noted that he came out for Saba Saba, only to remember he was 'press' and return to his original story.
"As a press, I'm going to record all the 'coming on' (to mean what is going to come," he said.
He was delighted after the interviewer called him Mr Press, and reacted with a famous Kikuyu phrase; 'ahh onee!, delighting some netizens.
Many who saw the video urged Equity Bank to sponsor the young boy through school, as he was very talented.
Here are some of the reactions:
