Dagoretti North MP Beatrice Elachi has stirred debate on social media following her emotional prayer at this year's National Prayer Breakfast, where she lamented the state of Kenya's youth and criticised the influence of social media.

Speaking at the annual event held at Safari Park Hotel and attended by President William Ruto and other top leaders, Elachi asked God to intervene on behalf of what she described as the country's "hopeless youth" and the "spirit of social media ruining the country".
