She was star-struck and called out Raila's nickname 'Baba'. A jovila Raila who was enjoying his drink leaped to his feet and hugged her and exchanged pleasantries.

"I was like, Baba. He stood up, came, gave me a hug, shook my hand. This was not just anyone. This was Baba. He asked me are you Kenyan? I told him yeah. He invited me, called the waiter and told him to give what I preferred. I ordered beer and we had a chat about the East African community, working away from home and the challenges,"Seraphine said.

She says she took photos with Raila and left after the pleasantries and the drink. She requested to post the photos on social media and Raila agreed.

Seraphine is unhappy that Kenyans spread propaganda that she warmed Raila's bed and said it is a problem ladies always face whenever they find themselves in such situations.

She argues that our society has been made to believe that ladies cannot progress without sleeping with men in authority.
