Following a national outcry, the daughter of Kenya’s president has denied that public money is being used to fund what she calls the “Office of the First Daughter”.

Since her father’s inauguration in September, Charlene Ruto has held several high-profile events and meetings under the title.

In Kenyan law, no such office exists.

Many Kenyans online have been expressing anger over her engagements, and asking who is funding them.

Some have described her as a “low budget version of Ivanka [Trump]”, who regularly attended political functions while her father Donald Trump was US president.

Some have nicknamed her Quickmart Ivanka – referencing a low-cost Kenyan supermarket.
