Just like other leaders who have visited former president Daniel Arap Moi, on Friday former Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka had a pleasure of visiting Mzee. Is it that he couldn’t afford being left behind?
The Wiper party leader took to his twitter account to share the information about his visit to Mzee Moi in his Kabarak home.

He was accompanied by his son and EALA MP Kennedy Musyoka, Senators Mutula Kilonzo Jnr and his Kitui counterpart Enoch Kiio Wambua. Baringo senator and Moi’s son Gideon Moi was also present.
Details of the meeting remain scanty.
Kalonzo during the burial of his father last week on Friday said he will visit Mzee Moi.
Moi, through his son, had sent an official invitation to Kalonzo.
After reading his family condolence Gideon added: “Mzee has sent me to request you to come and visit him after you bury your father so that he can personally condole with you” read the message in part.
“I am humbled that you have come to be with us. Tell Mzee that I together with my family will come after we bury my father. This is an opportunity that is long overdue and we will honour it by visiting Mzee,” Kalonzo said.
Kalonzo now joins a growing list of top politicians who have visited Moi before.
However, Kenyans on twitter saw Kalonzo’s visit as the official start of the “errand boy” job that he had been offered by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

This is after Kalonzo confirmed during his father’s burial that he had officially taken over duty to work as Uhuru’s errand boy.
Do you think the visit has anything to do with the merging of Kalonzo and President Kenyatta?
