A Chinese man caught making racist comments about people in Kenya was arrested and deported from the East African country on Thursday.
In a video filmed in June, Liu Jiaqi can be heard calling Kenyans — including President Uhuru Kenyatta — “monkeys.”
“All the Kenyans [are] like a monkey, even Uhuru Kenyatta,” Liu said.
He added that he disliked Kenya because it “smells bad and [its people are] poor, foolish and black.”

When the male employee asked why Liu targeted him, the Chinese national answered that it was because he is Kenyan.
Liu, who worked as a motorcycle trader at Sonlink Limited, added that he was only staying in the country to make money.
The video angered Kenyans who demanded that Liu be deported back to China.
