While visiting England , PRESIDENT KIBAKI is invited to tea with the Queen. He asks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it is to surround herself with intelligent people. He asks how she knows if they're intelligent. "I do so by asking them the right questions," says the Queen. "Allow me to demonstrate." She phones Gordon Brown and says, "Mr. Prime Minister. Please answer this question: Your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?" Gordon Brown responds, "It's me, ma'am." "Correct. Thank you and good-bye, sir," says the Queen. She hangs up and says, "Did you get that, Mr. KIBAKI?" "Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot. I'll definitely be using that!" Upon returning to NAIROBI , he decides he'd better put the Prime Minister to the test. He summons AGWAMBO to STATE House and says: "Bwana PM, I wonder if you can answer a question for me." "Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?" "Uh, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?" AGWAMBO hems and haws and finally asks, "Can I think about it and get back to you?" KIBAKI agrees, and AGWAMBO leaves. He immediately calls a meeting of other senior CABINET MINISTERS, and they puzzle over the question for several hours, but nobody can come up with an answer. Finally, in desperation, AGWAMBO calls ATWOLI, secretary general at COTU (Central Organization for Trade Unions in Kenya ) and explains his problem. "Now look here Francis, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother, or your sister. Who is it?" ATWOLI answers immediately, "It's me, of course, you dumb a**." Much relieved, AGWAMBO rushes back to the STATE House and exclaims,"I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's FRANCIS ATWOLI!" And KIBAKI replies in disgust, "PUMBAVU.., MAVI YA KUKU **, It's Gordon Brown!"
