February 1981 - Shortly Before His Death, kenyatta
February 1981 - Shortly Before His Death, kenyatta paid a visit to the stock Theft Unit. The unit allegely haboured an assasination squad whose members were to kill Moi to prevent him from succeeding Kenyatta. The three most wanted of the 15, Moi, Kibaki and Njonjo, would be conducted to the room containing Kenyatta's dead body; then some Ngoroko armed with su-machine guns with silencers would leap from their hiding places and shoot all three with their lethal weapons.
