While in Morocco, she was part of the Kenyan delegation gracing a high-profile event during the 14th edition of the #MeDays 2022 Forum in Tangiers, Morocco.

While there, the communication and business administration graduate championed Pan-Africanism and represented African youth and women where she was an honoured guest.

You will not fail to notice Charlene's broad smile in pictures, and she takes a perfect blend of both casual and official wear in her local and international tours of duty.

On October 28, she spent her day in Kirinyaga County where she shared reflections on her itinerary.

"Kirinyaga County is ripe for investment in areas of hospitality and value addition of crops such as tomatoes. It was a pleasure sitting and sharing these matters with Deputy Governor H.E. David Githanda. The progression of our counties is the progression of our countries," she said.

The previous day she was in Embu County with Governor Cecily Mbarire. "I was so honoured today to spend some time with one of the most effective female leaders in our country, Embu Governor CecilyMbarire and Deputy Governor Kinyua Mugo. They are putting in serious measures to create niche tourism areas in Embu County and its environs,"

Charlene has also endeavoured to market Kenya's tourism. During her visit to Isiolo County in October, she was quick to do so.

"Have you visited Isiolo County's Game reserves before? The Shaba, Buffalo Springs and Bisanadi National Reserves enrich Isiolo's rich culture, diversity and eco-tourism activities. In the spirit of #TembeaKenya, let us explore our counties and open up endless possibilities," she wrote.
