A snapshot of UNICEF employee Philip Van de Graaf from a viral video where he is accused of insulting guests. “UNICEF has launched investigations into events from Saturday that have been shown on social media,” read a statement from UNICEF Director for Eastern and Southern Africa, Mohammed Fall. UNICEF has also distanced itself from the actions of one Philip Van de Graaf, saying it does not condone such conduct from its employees. UNICEF Africa, on its official twitter handle also weighed in on the issue, promising to probe the matter and bring the suspect to book. However, Kenyans on Twitter hit back at UNICEF, questioning the rationale of an investigation, yet the video showed the suspect behaving badly.
