KANU Party Chairman and Baringo Senator Gideon Moi has hailed President Uhuru Kenyatta and NASA leader Raila Odinga for holding unity talks on Friday.
The Baringo Senator said that Uhuru, Raila's Friday meeting was the right move in reconciling Kenyans who he said are sharply and ethnically divided by last year's Presidential election.
Moi noted that it's time Kenyans put aside their differences and work together to build the country.
"As KANU we happily welcome and congratulate President Uhuru Kenyatta and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga for putting their interest's aside and agreeing to unite the country," he said as quoted by a local daily on Saturday.
Moi said that the Friday meeting between Uhuru and Raila was a show of unity and statesman-ship.
He called on other opposition politicians to take the step taken by Odinga and help the Jubilee government build and unite the country.
Raila met with President Kenyatta on Friday where they pledged to burry their political hatchet and work together.
Their meeting continues to draw wide reactions with majority of politician's lauding them.
A section of opposition politician's are however raising reservation's with some terming the meeting as betrayal to NASA co-principal's and supporter's.
Amani National Congress (ANC) leader and NASA co-principal Musalia Mudavadi maintains that they were not privy to the meeting.
In a press briefing in Mombasa on Saturday, Mudavadi said that they do not recognize Uhuru, Raila meeting.
Mudavadi described the Friday meeting a two gentleman affair and which did not represent the interests of NASA coalition.
Former Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka and Bungoma senator Moses Wetangula have also distanced themselves from Uhuru, Raila meeting, saying that they were not aware of it and learnt about it in the media.
NASA principals are expected to convene a summit meeting on Monday to dicuss the new developments.
It is not clear whether Raila Odinga will attend the meeting after Friday meeting with Uhuru.
