Kamala Harris, the Vice President of the United States of America busted out laughing on Wednesday when discussing the efforts needed to create more female leaders in Africa and the United States, adding there was "work to be done".

Amid the global rivalry with China, VP Kamala was on a week-long trip to Africa to create good ties with the continents. She was attending an interview at the National Museum of African American History & Culture in Washington, D.C. There she about her trip to Africa and meeting with Tanzanian President Suluhu Hassan a Ugandan American travel blogger, Jessica Nabongo.

Jessica asked about the importance of emphasizing women's empowerment and what was the feeling of meeting one of so few female heads.

On this, Kamala replied that "She is the only woman to lead a country on the continent. Ellen Johnson was before her and was the first and the last elected woman to run a country on the continent. So, there's still work to be done".

After this remark of hers, she laughed out loud as the audience laughed and applauded.

Kamala Harris is the first woman to be elected as the Vice President of the United States of America. She has been frequently criticized for unexpectedly laughing when confronted with difficult questions on serious issues. She has been seen giggling when asked about Ukrainian refugees during a press conference with Polish President Andrzej Duda.

Both Kamala and Andrzej were seen laughing briefly after confusion about who would answer the question first.

Kamala has also been criticized for fumbling and repeating some words at conferences and interviews.
