Kenyans on Twitter have criticised the President for dancing with a crew at State House while doctors remain on strike and people die of hunger.
President Uhuru Kenyatta met the FBI Dance Crew on Wednesday and danced surrounded by them in a jacket that resembled theirs.
Uhuru copied the moves of crew members including Ezra Njagi (leader), Moesha Kibibi, Ramadhan Nyachio, Emmanuel Tumaini, Katabira Denis and Kennedy Mutembei.
They danced to the 'Bamba kura yako' tune aimed at urging youths to register as voters, another issue Uhuru has been said to put before Kenya's problems.
The dab is a move in which the dancer simultaneously drops the head and raises the arm and elbow.
Uhuru calmed his nerves with the moves, doing his best to keep them as calculated as the crew members'.
But members of the public who just weren't amused asked him to wake up and smell the coffee, via Twitter hash tag#DabOfShame.
Doctors went on strike on December 5, 2016 in a demand for a 300 per cent pay rise, a review of working conditions, job structures and criteria for promotions, and a solution to under staffing in public hospitals.
