Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua Crowned Best Governor in Africa
Machakos Governor Dr. Alfred Mutua has been named the best governor on the continent by My Media Africa, a Nigerian-based media company.
Mutua, who has served as the governor for Machakos since 2013, won the ‘Best African Governor’ award at the second edition of the Africa Illustration Awards 2021.
The award recognizes leaders from African countries who have performed well in various categories including sports, arts, community development, agriculture, philanthropy, education, and governance.
Mutua defeated Oscar Mabuyane of Premier of Eastern Cape province (South Africa) and Bushy Maape of Premier of North Western Province (South Africa) to win the award.
He made it to the final list of the awards due to his remarkable work in infrastructure, youth development, water provision, healthcare, and recreational facilities.
One of the judges Henry Iwuanyanwu said he was particularly impressed by Mutua’s efforts to keep Machakos town clean. He noted that Machakos People's Park was clean, beautiful, and free for the public.
“I dedicate this award to my Machakos Cabinet, County Assembly, and public service. We have done it together,” Governor Mutua said.
This year’s award ceremony was held at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Lagos, Nigeria on Thursday.
The 2020 Best African Governor award was presented to Babagana Umara Zulum, Governor of Borno State in Nigeria.

Good distraction for Mutua hopefully this will stop him from repossessing the cars down to the panties he claims he bought for Lilian. Such a petty and vengeful governor.
Anything Nigerian is fake!!!!. Nigerians GO Back to your filthy country of Nigeria. We don't need your monkey DNA in Kenya!!!!
Looter number 1 governor.The guy is also No.1 African labor exporter to Middle East.But how many African countries have excess money to loot?
He deserves it! Machakos has really improved & more developments are in the pipeline!
His uncle Kivuita Kibwana has also done a remarkable job!
He may not be 100% pure from corruption but Gov. Mutua and Gov Kivutha Kibwana are better suited to be the next President of Kenya. Better than our recycled leaders in the names of Raila and Ruto. Why is Raila even running to be the press? Economies have gone digital….why elect people who have ideas from the 60s? Why?
NEGROES cretiria is low
Even drama with wife messing with all boys in village?
