Kenyan-Mexican Hollywood actress Lupita Nyong'o silently visited Kenya and jetted out on Tuesday without attracting media attention.

The Star reports that the Oscar-winning actress spent Christmas holiday at her ancestral home in Ratta Village, Kisumu County.

The 34-year-old reportedly landed in Kenya on December 24th and proceeded to Kisumu before secretly leaving the country on January 1st.

A Kisumu County government official says the "Blank Panther" actress kept her visit secret because it was a family affair.

In May, Lupita made a surprise visit to the lakeside city on an apparent secret mission accompanied by her aides and a team of investors.

After landing in Kisumu, she was escorted by a motorcade of about 15 county government cars to a meeting with his father- Kisumu Governor Prof Anyang' Nyong'o.

During the closed-door meeting, Governor Nyong'o held discussions on investment in talent development with the investors. Lupita and her delegation later visited a couple of talent centers in Kisumu.
