HUGE MILESTONE! King Clyde Rivers Honoured at Royal Civility Awards in Zanzibar
His Royal Highness King Clyde Rivers
The 2025 Royal Civility Hall of Fame and World Greatness Awards took place at Shukran Palace in Zanzibar, drawing kings, queens, global dignitaries, and humanitarian leaders from across Africa and beyond.
At the heart of the ceremony was His Royal Majesty King Clyde Rivers, celebrated globally as The Father of Civility Africa and The King of Civility. His message of humility, love, and service moved the audience to a standing ovation.
“True greatness is measured not by titles or crowns, but by how we honour humanity with love, respect, and civility,” — King Clyde Rivers, in his keynote address.
Organised by the Royal Civility Global Initiative in partnership with the World Greatness Awards, the prestigious event recognised individuals and institutions advancing peace, dignity, and servant leadership around the world.
Among the top honours presented was The Crown of Civility Award, named in honour of King Rivers, which celebrates leaders promoting respect and unity across social, political, and cultural boundaries.
Other accolades included:
The Presidential Greatness & Civility Humanitarian Award, recognising exceptional humanitarian service;
Legend of Greatness, Leading Light of Greatness, Icon of Greatness, and Visionary of Greatness, bestowed upon royals, faith leaders, and innovators transforming their communities.
Delegates described King Rivers’ address as “a breath of divine inspiration,” noting that his leadership continues to inspire a new generation of peace ambassadors.
The Zanzibar ceremony was hailed as a milestone in the global civility movement — reinforcing the principle that true leadership begins with service to others.
For more than two decades, King Rivers has mentored young leaders and championed global peace through kindness, inclusion, and mutual respect. His philosophy, organisers said, reminds the world that civility is not weakness — it is greatness in action.
As the evening drew to a close, one delegate summed up the night’s spirit:
“Leadership is service, and civility is the highest form of greatness.”
