They say that behind every successful man, there is a powerful woman and I agree with that. These men in power (politicians) are always flanked by beautiful wives. The bible says in Proverbs 18:22 that "He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favour from the Lord.

Kenyan politicians are more often than not characterised by corruption, greed, adultery, being underhanded, loud but surprisingly, they are loving husbands to their beautiful wives...at least in the limelight.

Well, from Najib Balala to Alfred Mutua, meet the Kenyan politicians with the most beautiful wives.

  1. Najib Balala

The current Cabinet Secretary for Tourism, and the immediate former MP for Mvita constituency tops the list. He is lucky to have the most beautiful wife on earth; Naja Balala. The couple are blessed with a son Naeem Balala who recently wed.

2. Dr Alfred Mutua

The Machakos county boss also has eyes for beautiful women. He is the partner to the ever amazing and stunning Lilian Nganga. The two met on a flight enroute to UAE sometime back and ever since, have become the most admired couple around.

3. William Ruto

The Deputy President and his wife just have chemistry. Despite the haters, they have forged on with their relationship and the two just make a perfect match.

4. Ababu Namwamba

The man from Mulembe land cannot miss being on this list. He is the only Luhya politician who is never afraid of showing his wife affection in public. Married to the beautiful woman Priscah, the power couple recently welcomed their third born child.

5. Peter Munya

He is the governor of Meru county, current chairman of the Council of Governors and a former assistant minister in the Ministry of East African Community. Peter Munya's wife Phoebe's striking beauty has always attracted many. Despite having given birth, she has maintained her gorgeous looks.

6. Johnstone Muthama

The no-nonsense Machakos senator and die hard CORD follower's wife Jemima Muthama recently left many wagging tongues after she appeared in the limelight for the first time at Muthaiga Police Station. She is beautiful, gorgeous and a true African woman.

7. William Kabogo

Philomena Kabogo is one reserved lady. She is rarely in the limelight. Unlike her counterparts who thrive on controversy, the wife to Kiambu county boss is very different. She is not only smart upstairs but also beautiful. Have you seen her photos? She doesn't look like her real age.

8. Evans Kidero

Susan Mboya is the beautiful woman behind this successful man. She has always been supportive to her hubby through thick and thin. Mrs Kidero can still gerrit!!

9. Anyang' Nyong'o

The Kisumu senator is married to one gorgeous woman; Dorothy. Just like Ny'ong'o, his wife is also a great fashion enthusiast. The power couple are parents to Oscar award winner Lupita Ny'ong'o.

10. Uhuru Kenyatta

How can he not feature on such a list? The President of the Republic of Kenya is lucky. His wife Margaret Kenyatta is ranked among the top 10 African President's with the most beautiful women; Uncle Mugabe's wife was not even anywhere near the top 50.

Known for her short hairstyle and passion for charity, Margaret Kenyatta has become a darling to many ever since she moved to the house on the hill. Her Beyond Zero campaign has helped many including women and young children.
