The striking resemblance between the late Daniel Arap Moi and his family’s spokesman and Press secretary of over forty years Lee Njiru has raised a lot of eyebrows in the country.
Moi’s Family spokesperson, Lee Njiru has been with Moi and his family for 42 years.
“I met him in 1977 when I was 28years old and now I am 70years,” said Lee.
He also added, “Practically, I was a member of Moi’s family. We used to eat together, we also shared sad and happy moments together.”
Photos of the two and their undeniable resemblance have led many Kenyans to believe that Lee could be Moi’s ‘secret’ son. Their eyes almost look alike and they both have a gap of a missing tooth in their lower jaw, which is characteristic of the Kalenjin community.
Their resemblance has gone viral on social media a condolence messages continue to stream in.
“It’s has taken Kenyans 95 or is it 101 – 103 years to see the resemblance?” questioned Kevin Keya.
