SENATOR Gideon Moi crowned Kalenjin elder by Kapsisiywo Talai elders in a dawn ceremony; gets mandate to seek power.
Weeks ago the senator’s plan to be crowned botched after rowdy Tanga tanga supporters blocked his way to the elder’s homestead.
Blocking Baringo Senator Gideon Moi from a Talai elders’ coronation ceremony in Nandi exposed the depth of his differences with Deputy President William Ruto.
The overnight ceremony from Friday night to Saturday morning at the home of Talai elder Christopher aborted after the Kanu chairman and his entourage were blocked.
Angry pro-Ruto Talai clan youths barricaded all entry points to Kapsisywa village, the home of the Laibons, who are both feared and respected.
Ruto is running for president and Gideon Moi is also interested; the two are rivals for the Rift Valley vote.
They pledged to ensure that all the DP’s opponents, including Gideon, were crowned and honoured to undercut the DP’s influence.
His threats placed the clan elders under the chairmanship of Rt Canon James Baasi on high alert to protect the the DP’s ceremony at Baasi’s home.
Elder Christopher Agui coordinated the Talai yout: barricade the roads to the Talai shrine.
“No other ceremony would be held other that than of DP,” he said.
He added, “If senator Moi is so keen to undergo the ceremony, he should involve political leaders from Nandi, including Governor Stephen Sang, Senator Samson Cherargei and MP Wilson Kogo for proper arrangements.”
Senator Moi had set off from Eldoret town by road with his entourage on Friday night for the 50km drive to the remote and revered Talai shrine in Kapsisywa.

Of what value does it add a part from filling one self with demons.
Salvatiion bring progress from GOD.
Those demons bring nothing but satanism in one – like father like son – when you look at his county the level of poverty – these elders should not have dished those demon paraphernalia on him. He will be as useless as his late father and the country as he has been to his county.
Goodluck with the demons dished to by free will.

The pimp with no substance in him.
Talks of the SNAKE BBI have inclusivity: since when does a satanic document have inclusivity. Is this pimp with no development record behind his name going by his county poverty level and now a ground for KDF torrosit terrorizing the native both fossil president and him and the election thief vampire fraudster have never bothered to develop since independence to date. This inclusivity this pimp and the marketers of the SNAKE BBI are taking about means this useless beneficiaries of loots by this pimps and vampires fraudsters coming together to share slots amongst themselves in the pretext of inclusivity across the nation,, which isn’t the case.
The pimp should got to hell where those demons he’s been filled with and take his nonsense to his fossil fellow pimp in abyss to show him the light and not the broad highway to abyss. He should continue drinking alcohol cos there’s nothing in that skull that can develop the republic of kenya as he operates on the shadow of fossil pimp father.
Not my vote pimp! may the demons of those wachawi torment you proper as you keep dreaming.
