Former President Daniel Moi once walked for over 240km from Kapsabet in Nandi County to Kapsowar in Elgeyo Marakwet to buy a bible.
A close friend of the late Moi, Joel Chebii, says the former President narrated to him how, in 1940's, he went all out to buy his first Bible from white missionaries who were then based in Marakwet.
