President Moi
Daniel arap Moi was the second president of Kenya, serving from 1978 to 2002. His presidency was marked by a strongman leadership style, characterized by a focus on maintaining political stability through a one-party state until the introduction of multiparty politics in the early 1990s. Moi's era saw both significant infrastructure development and widespread allegations of human rights abuses and corruption. His handshake with Raila Odinga in 1998 was a pivotal moment aimed at stabilizing Kenya's fragile political landscape during a time of unrest.
