Retired President Daniel Arap Moi Taken to Nairobi Hospital

Retired President Daniel Arap Moi has been admitted at Nairobi Hospital for what his aides say is a routine medical checkup.

His physician Dr. David Silverstein says Moi will spend a couple of days at the hospital as doctors carry out medical analysis.

In March, the 94-year-old was flown to Israel and was admitted to a hospital in the city of Tel Aviv. 

In a statement at the time, his spokesperson Lee Njiru said Moi had an operation on his knee “which has been troubling him for some time.”

The problem began in 2006 after the car he was traveling with collided with another vehicle at Rukuma area in Limuru.
