Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua got a job offer from a Facebook user where he would be taught how to make Ksh20,000 in a week.
The user Geoffrey Chaillah offered Dr Mutua the job after the Court of Appeal annulled his election.
"Hello Dr Alfred Mutua. I heard the Court of Appeal today morning rendered you jobless. Do you want to make 20k to 40k per week using your phone? Ask me how. #AimGlobal," Chaillah wrote.
The hilarious post went viral on Facebook where many users receive similar offers from Aim Global agents with a promise of making quick cash in a short period of time.

Governor Mutua did not, however, respond to the job offer even after Machakos MCAs on Tuesday voted to declare his seat vacant.
The Ward Reps asked Speaker Florence Mwangangi to assume executive powers in an acting capacity.
Mutua's lawyer, Wilfred Nyamu dismissed the Motion, terming it premature and unnecessary.
"The current situation is that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has not even been served with the order of the court. For the assembly to discuss this issue, it is tantamount to occasioning a coup," Nyamu who is a constitutional lawyer stated.
According to the lawyer, the governor is in office until writs are issued and seat declared vacant if he doesn't obtain orders stating the judgment of the court.
Mutua's offer by Chaillah comes at a time where many people are unemployed in the country and pyramid schemes are set up to trap unsuspecting job seekers.
The infamous pyramid schemes are slick, smart, faceless and untouchable and they prowl the anarchic cyber-world, luring thousands of gullible Kenyans with the promise of easy cash.

One such contemporary pyramid scheme was the Public Likes, a website on which users earned merely by clicking on ‘adverts’.
