A section of KANU officials from the Rift Valley have called on President Uhuru Kenyatta to dialogue with NASA leader Raila Odinga over the current political stalemate.
According to the officials, the two leaders hold key to deciding how the country moves forward.
"For sure, we are headed in the wrong direction. It will be of no use for Jubilee or NASA to force their way when the country is on fire," Paul Kibet said, Elgeyo Marakwet branch chair.
He made the remarks after a meeting of the party leaders in Eldoret to discuss the political situation in the country.
KANU coordinators in the region, including Jonathan Bii and Paul Melly, were also present at the Wednesday meeting.
Kibet added that the current chaotic environment cannot allow an election to be conducted.
"Time has come for President Kenyatta not to bury his head in the sand while the country is on the brink of chaos," he said.
"Let him reach out to all Kenyans and unite the country as soon as possible."
Bii said both Uhuru and Raila must soften their hard-line positions and put Kenya first.
