Mr World Kenya Robert Budi jetted back from Manilla, Philippines, yesterday morning after an impressive show at the just-concluded Mr World finals. Budi emerged second in Africa, narrowly losing to South Africa’s Fezile Mkhize who is the 2019 Mr World Africa.
Budi clocked the best time in the extreme challenge category. Throughout the contest, he emerged top six in most of the categories. And in the finals, he was named in the top 20. Philippines’ leading blogger Alvans Sebetoro was shocked that Budi did not emerge top six worldwide. Sebetoro had predicted that Budi would be in the top three worldwide.
