A piggy bank was placed on the table, and the young man shoved notes and coins into it.
The electronic piggy bank whirred as it sucked the notes inside.
"The money is finished," James said.
Sonko told him that he would get the change the next day when they went to the market.
"All the change is yours," he said.
The video cut and showed Sonko giving the boy Chinese Yuan to put into the piggy bank.

"All money that remains, put it in there. We will not open until you are older.
Sonko said he would start teaching James English and shared plans to take him to school.
"I will take you to a good school so you can learn with white children," James said.
At one point, James asked Sonko to open the piggy bank, but he refused.
"When this one is full, we will take it to the bank, and I will get you another one.
You need to start saving when you are young," Sonko said.
Kenyans were touched by the clip and reacted by saying:
Sheila Abong:
“This kid is richer than many Kenyans now.”
Martha Mash Kitum:
“This boy will go far. To you, Sonko and your wife, may you never lack.”
Hellen Omiti:
“The baby has settled in well, and the trauma he was suffering from seems to have gone away! God bless you, Mike Sonko, for breathing new life into this cutie young soul and giving him a home, unconditionally! May you never lack!”

“Sonko's heart is a special gift from God! Long live the king.”

How did Sandra Mbuvi bond with James?
Sonko's daughter, Sandra, recently returned to Kenya for her birthday celebrations.
The politician did not spare costs as he threw a swanky party, attended by family and close friends.

Sandra met James for the first time, and the two hit it off. A video shared by their mother, Primrose, showed Sandra asking the boy several questions as they played with his toy gun.
They walked hand in hand around their house.
