“After the handshake, I looked for Nginyo Kariuki on phone and asked him whether to support the process or not. He told me if Gideon Moi is involved then you should support it. To you Gideon I want you to know we got the message and all our eyes are on you. Please revive KANU and we shall be with you,” she said.

During the burial of the late former President Mzee Daniel Moi, Gideon was handed the Mzee’s famous ‘rungu ya nyayo’, taking over Mzee Moi’s political mantle.
