Ruto comes to the defense of his daughter Charlene after Kenyans tore her apart

President William Ruto has proved to be a caring father as he passionately defended his daughter Charlene from angry Kenyans on social media.

Charlene rubbed Kenyans the wrong way after she declared herself as the occupant of the ‘Office of the First Daughter.’

The non-existent ‘Office of the First Daughter’ got netizens to troll Charlene for days with some terming her power-hungry.

Ruto defended Charlene during a joint TV interview at State House on Wednesday night January 4, 2023.

The head of state said that his daughter was only excited about being the child of a sitting president when she referred to her role as that of the ‘Office of the First Daughter’.

“Leave my daughter Charlene alone. These are kids, they are just being children. So you know very well that there’s no such office,” Ruto said.

NTV’s James Smart jokingly asked Ruto to point to them where the ‘Office of the First Daughter’ was located in State House.

“That’s hilarious. This a girl just trying to be herself at her pace. Her friends are advising her maybe we should do this and that.

She is okay, she’s just being the daughter of William Ruto and sometimes she doesn’t know the difference between the president and the father,” Ruto said.
