Tourism CS Najib Balala has said that his ministry is still finding ways to reach out to the Award-winning Kenyan Hollywood actress Lupita Nyong’o in marketing Brand Kenya. Balala said that they had earlier tried to reach her out but they could not access her due to complications. Balala said this after he was forced to defend the recent appointment of supermodel Naomi Campbell as Magical Kenya’s international ambassador instead of Lupita. At the same time, the CS said that the international supermodel Naomi Campbell accepted the deal to become Magical Kenya's International Tourism Ambassador for free. “We are open to many others who will be interested and I am glad that Naomi Campbell has done this for free because of her love for Kenya.”
