Gender Affairs Principal Secretary Zeinab Hussein found herself in trouble during a Friday women leaders' meeting after she started campaigning for Jubilee Party’s President Uhuru Kenyatta.

The meeting, which was attended by Narc Kenya leader Martha Karua, former Judiciary Registrar Gladys Shollei, Kisumu deputy governor Ruth Odinga, turned chaotic after a group of angry attendees shouted at PS Zeinab after she asked them to vote for Uhuru come August 8.

The meeting was aimed at motivating women to seek elective posts in the upcoming general election.

It took the intervention of Karua to calm down the enraged women, who accused the PS of turning the meeting into a vote-hunting ground.
