Charlene Ruto responds to critics over the “Office of First Daughter” amid questions raised on the source of funding.
Charlene Ruto responded to questions about the source of funds for the Office of the First Daughter.
Charlene explained in a statement on Wednesday, December 14 that the entity was privately managed.
“The Office of the First Daughter is a private entity. It is neither a constitutional office nor is it being funded by
Kenyan taxpayers.
“It runs to purely facilitate the activities and any programs being run by myself,” she underlined.
Charlene explained that the office was not linked to that of President William Ruto and undertook objectives set by herself specifically targeting the youth.
“The office has engaged various players across the country and beyond in line with some of its objectives of championing youth-based agendas and climate change advocacy,” the statement read in part.
She also denied having any ulterior motives, including laying the groundwork for a political career, and stated that all of her work was done in good faith.
The first daughter yelled at those who were pursuing her, saying that she, too, has a voice and will use it to create opportunities for youth.
Charlene came to public attention after a video of her introducing the members of her office went viral.
Kenyans took to social media demanding answers on who exactly was sponsoring the President’s second-born daughter who also recently launched a foundation.
The explanation comes after the first daughter was forced to delve deeper into her foreign trips.
She explained that she regularly updated the President before taking any trip.
