The scion trended on Twitter Wednesday as Kenyans from all walks of life discussed her alleged appointment.

She, however, released a statement clarifying that she had not received any nomination to EALA.

Winnie faulted an incoming Cabinet secretary she did not mention by name for the onslaught against her of the EALA appointment.

"We say to girls: You can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful but not too successful, otherwise, you will threaten the man," he said.

"I have not applied for Eala nor has any official comms come from the party. Just a disgruntled incoming CS bothered by the girl."
