Among the deputy governors, she has met are of Embu county Kinyua Mugo and Isiolo's James Lowasa.
During the Embu tour, she also met with Governor Cecily Mbarire.
Prior to the two meetings, the scion had held meetings with Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja among other senior county officials.

While reacting o the meetings, renowned Azimio blogger and popular commentator Pauline Njoroge said the meetings should henceforth happen behind cameras.
She opined that things may not go well in the near future and that images of this meeting with the deputy governor may cost her dearly.
"See, I don’t know what these meetings between Charlene and the governors or their deputies entail. But if I was to give unsolicited advice to our young sister, I would tell her to do them behind closed doors and away from cameras. It might seem ok now, but the evidence of these meetings might come to bite later," Pauline advised.
She is not the only one who has raised concerns.
"This government is being run by the 1st family Even the first lady has been meeting officials in the state house I don't know which capacity is but weeh we will see wonders," Mumbi Gitonga weighed in on the matter on Facebook.
Austine Ochieng on the other hand said: "I disagree, these kinds of meetings are important for anyone being mentored into public life. I also think the photo gallery is meant to achieve a particular agenda".
Charlene has been conspicuous in some crucial meetings involving the business community lately.
A month ago, she attended a function where a South African airline was launching its office in Kenya after its exit from the Kenyan market owing to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Reports then indicated that she had attended as a representative of Weston Hotel, a facility linked to his father.
