Masi-Manimba is a town in Kwilu Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the headquarters of the Masi-Manimba Territory. Its population was estimated at 31,802 in 2012. The town lies on the Lukula River, a tributary of the Kwilu River, on the road between Kenge to the west and Kikwit to the east. It is served by Masi-Manimba Airport, whose runway is about 1,200 metres long. The territory elects seven national deputies, and the majority of those recently came from the Unified Lumumbist Party. The area was administered by Anne Mbusu, appointed under former president Joseph Kabila as one of the women given such a role in the country.
