In March 2002, then Vice President George Saitoti was removed from his position as second in command in KANU in an acrimonious delegates conference at Kasarani.

This dealt a big blow to Prof Saitoti’s chances of succeeding President Moi. His removal paved way for four positions of vice-chairmen that were given to Musalia Mudavadi, who represented Western, Katana Ngala for Coast, Uhuru Kenyatta for Central and Kalonzo Musyoka for Eastern.
