President William Ruto has said his daughter, Charlene, was excited about being the child of a sitting president, and could have been misadvised when she referred to her role as that of the Office of the First Daughter.

The president’s daughter came under sharp criticism on December 13, 2022 when she introduced her delegation to Tanzania as members of staff at the Office of the First Daughter.
