Former President Daniel arap Moi has made a remarkable recovery and has been discharged from the Nairobi Hospital.
According to a statement from Lee Njiru, Moi's Press Secretary and official Spokesman, the former president was discharged on Thursday after two weeks in hospital.
"The Moi family has expressed gratitude to all those who offered prayers and sent 'quick recovery' messages," read the statement.
Mr. Moi was given a clean bill of health by his medical team, led by his personal physician Dr. David Silverstein, before being allowed to return home.
Although the nature of Moi's ailment was not disclosed, sources indicated that he was being treated for breathing complications he developed over the weekend.
At 95 years old, Moi has been in and out of hospital since undergoing a knee surgery in Israel early last year for routine check-ups.
