Former President Daniel arap Moi’s life has come to an end. At the height of his rule, he had become a veritable demigod.

He could determine if you got a job or not. With one word, he could ruin your business. He could turn your life into a nightmare, not knowing when the secret police would come knocking on your door at night. Most terrifyingly, he had the power of life and death over Kenyans. But he did run the course of his life.
