In a video posted by the Nation, Itumbi is seen being kicked out by hawk-eyed presidential security officers from the VIP podium on Wednesday.

It's understood that Itumbi, a close ally of Deputy President William Ruto, was taking a video of President Uhuru Kenyatta who was addressing the gathering.

But in a tweet afterwards, Itumbi insisted that he was not embarrassed, adding that he still remained at the podium to do his job.

"No embarassment @dailynation, just another great day in office....of course you See I still remained on the podium. Just one of those moments when everyone is just doing their job...hahaa enjoyed. Tuko sawa," he tweeted.

Earlier, Itumbi, a renown blogger had expressed dissatisfaction with the organisers of BBI report launching, arguing that a section of leaders was discriminated.

During the function, President Uhuru Kenyatta narrated how it was difficult for him to start a conversation with Raila Odinga when the two first met.

"Our meeting wasn't easy. We had fears. I was asking myself, what will I tell this person? (Kukutana kwetu haikuwa kitu rahisi... tulikuwa na hofu... ilikuwa unajiuliza... huyu mtu tukikutana tutaambiana nini?)" he said as quoted by the Star

The President who spoke at the Bomas of Kenya on Wednesday during the launching of BBI report said it took him 45 minutes before starting to discuss the road to reunite Kenya.

"We took tea for 45 minutes and we were speaking nothing. We only engaged on normal greetings, how our families were doing and so on. (Tulikunywa chai 45 minutes na hakuna mwenye alikuwa anaogea... ilikuwa tunauliza; habari ya nyumbani... habari ya mama.... wako tu.... habari ya watoto... wako sawa)," he said.
