| Former Kenya President Moi |
Moi, who backs Amani Coalition Presidential candidate Musalia Mudavadi, said he will only comment on the ongoing politics on March 5.
The former President was addressing residents in Kabarnet on Monday.
“I will come here on March 5 to tell you more. Please allow me to proceed with my journey. I will come to Kabarnet to address a rally,” said Moi.
He was on his way to Kapenguria in West Pokot County to drum up support for Kanu candidate for the Senate seat John Lonyangapuo.
During stopovers along the Marigat-Kabarnet road, Moi appealed to voters to remain united before and after the polls, telling them their unity was the only source of their strength.
Moi said he was happy with the way citizens conducted themselves during the campaign period.
“Please, I urge you to remain in peace as you go to the election. Peace should be your priority this moment,” said the former Head of State.
However, Moi while speaking in Kabarnet town was categorical that his former constituents should remain in Kanu.
He thanked residents for remaining in the former ruling party.
Sleepless nights
“I want to appreciate and thank you for remaining in Kanu. Nobody should sway you in anyway,” he said.
However, reports from Baringo County that Kanu was gaining overwhelming support has given the Jubilee Coalition sleepless nights.
The Jubilee team, led by their deputy presidential candidate William Ruto, is expected to tour the region again tomorrow, less than a week since they visited.
Last week, Jubilee presidential candidate Uhuru Kenyatta and his running mate toured Eldama Ravine where they appealed to Rift Valley voters not to split their votes to enable them get majority in Parliament and senate.
