Alexander Kipsang Muge was an Anglican bishop in Kenya: he was Bishop of Eldoret from 1983 until his death in 1990.[1]

Muge was born in 1948 and educated at St. Philip's, Maseno. He was ordained deacon in 1975 and priest in 1976. He served at St. Stephen, Nairobi and then at All Saints' Cathedral, Nairobi.[2]

Muge became a critic of Daniel Arap Moi and advocated for civil rights in Kenya. His death in a car accident is widely regarded as suspicious.[3][4]
