The clerics eulogised Kenya’s second president as a generous leader who had education at his heart.
They argued that during his tenure, Mr Moi contributed to growth of education institutions across the country.
The leaders said Moi’s philosophy of peace, love and unity was in line with religious doctrine and called on elected leaders to follow in his footsteps.
Religious leaders have appealed to Kenyans and political detainees offended by former President Daniel Moi to forgive him.
The former president will be buried on Wednesday at his Kabarak home in Nakuru County.
