Leaders from across the ruling Jubilee Party and the NASA coalition continue to react after the meeting between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Odinga.
Garissa Town MP Aden Duale has congratulated the two leaders for their undying love for the country, choosing to place the interests before that of the country.
“Congratulations President @UKenyatta for living to your promise of leaving behind a united prosperous nation as his legacy. Meeting Hon. @RailaOdinga, his political arch-rival was part of his promise to promote national reconciliation, healing & fostering unity among our citizens,”
The two leaders met on Friday in what was a surprise turn of events, with the absence of other coalition principals.
The event was also characterized by the absence of Deputy President William Ruto, who is said to be unhappy with the relationship with President Kenyatta.
Their agreement to work together now settles the tension that has been there since the last elections, which President Kenyatta won after a second round.
There have been calls from different areas requesting the two to sit down and agree on their differences.
