Hilarious memes: Raila confused Linus for Joe, as Dr Kaluyu stuck to accent
NTV Managing Editor Linus Kaikai was trending for the better part of Tuesday morning after Nasa flag bearer Raila Odinga repeatedly confused him for his KTN counterpart Joe Ageyo during the presidential debate.
The were the moderators of the debate.
Mr Odinga showed his fondness to the name Joe and repeatedly referred to Linus as Joe when answering questions. This compelled Mr Kaikai to rectify Mr Odinga on the name mix-up.
Kenyans on Twitter were quick to share funny memes, while others advised Linus to just accept the new name given to him by Mr Odinga.

The first half of the presidential debate had seen independent candidates battle it, but what really stood out to Kenyans on Twitter was one candidate’s American accent.
Dr Japheth Kaluyu left an impression on netizens with his American accent .
