The content of a conversation that comedian Eddie Butita had with actor Steve Harvey has finally been made public.

It just so happened that they were having lunch together at Tyler Perry Studios, where President William Ruto was also having a meal.

Butita was able to fulfill a goal that he had been harbouring for more than fourteen years when he finally got the chance to meet Steve Harvey.

In the course of their conversation, Steve Harvey mentioned that he had viewed Butita on YouTube before they even got a chance to talk.

This information was given by Butita after the two had a conversation about how to enhance the entertainment industry in Kenya.

"We had great conversations on how to equip and train talents for business success in showbiz; it is show and business and I'm happy our creatives are factored in these conversations," he explained.

Eddie recently said in a video blog with Dennis Itumbi that Steve had been conducting a study on the Kenyan market and Africa in general.

Harvey also admitted to viewing some of his comedic acts, such as, "Not fine to be fine."

The television personality intends to bring Family Feud and other franchises to the country. Butita also claimed that Harvey made an offer to mentor and teach creatives how to build and sustain such franchises.

"He will be coming to Kenya. Also, Tyler Perry is set to visit the country."
