The visit of Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho to retired President Daniel Moi has continued to elicit mixed reactions from different factions.
Moi’s son Baringo Senator Gideon Moi has hinted at contesting for the nation’s top seat come 2022. According to a section of Kenyans, Joho is likely to be Moi’s running mate when that time comes.
Speaking on Sunday when he officiated a funds drive at AIC Churo Girls Secondary School in Tiaty Sub-County after meeting Moi, Joho said that he asked him to join others in uniting Kenya, adding that he assured him that he will not let him down.
"We had some talks with the retired president Moi on Saturday and I must tell you that it has helped in my journey to unite Kenyans because that is what he insisted that I should do and I will not let him down," said the governor.
The second-time governor also said that he is tired of a country where a few individuals want to lead the nation as others watch.
He also said that he dreams of a day when a politician from the minority group will lead this nation as the president.
Joho has also hinted at vying for the nation’s top post.
