Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua and Kisii Deputy Governor fell into river Kuja on Friday morning after they fell off a bridge.
The two were fished out of the dirty water at Ogembo by their security guys as people watched in dismay.
James Mabiria, a local said that the two fell into the river as they were taking a selfie.
"They were taking a photo on the bridge when the bridge collapsed, they were then rushed to hospital," he said.
The two did not get injured but other people who were on the bridge escaped with minor injuries.
The bridge is said to be in unstable condition following heavy rains in the area.
