National Resistance Movement (NRM) Kenya leader Dr Miguna Miguna has criticised Saturday's meeting in which President Uhuru Kenyatta met former President Daniel Arap Moi.
Uhuru called on former President Moi at his home in Kabarak in Nakuru County as he was on his way to the burial ceremony of the late Sarah Jerop Kasaon.
Miguna in a tweet criticised the meeting which he had interpreted to mean that Uhuru may perhaps be preparing to support Baringo Senator Gideon Moi for the presidency when 2022 comes.
"We enacted the Constitution of Kenya, 2010 to make multiparty democracy a reality and gave ourselves the power to choose, through a transparent, credible and accountable manner, who would occupy public office and how our taxes would be spent. Neither Moi nor Uhuru Kenyatta has those powers," Miguna said.
There has been speculation that Uhuru is planning to hand over the mantle of Kenya's leadership to Gideon Moi although the Senator has not publicly declared his interest for the presidency.
When former President Moi returned from Israel from where he had gone to seek treatment, Uhuru was among leaders who visited him at his Kabarak home.
Opposition leader Raila Odinga also visited the former Head of State.
But Deputy President William Ruto who is said to have also travelled to Kabarak on his own to see Mr Moi was not allowed to meet the former Commander in Chief.
Political analysts claimed then that Ruto's failure to see Moi meant that he may not get the blessing of Uhuru and the older Moi in 2022.
