What you need to know:
While most sons and daughters of African dictators live in luxury, the same cannot be said of most of Moi’s children.
In his 1998 biography, The Making of an African Statesman, Mr Moi admitted, for the first time, that he had little joy from his family.
This explains why of late only Gideon appears beside him when receiving dignitaries. Moi told British author Andrew Morton that he felt disappointed and let down.
