Veteran opposition leader Raila Odinga held a two-hour long closed-door meeting with leaders of the GEMA community.
On top of the agenda of that meeting, according to Mr Wilfred Kamau, chairman of the GEMA community Nairobi, one of the people who attended the meetings, was how to manage the historical tensions between the Luos and the Kikuyus.
There were also discussions on how to make presidential elections peaceful and not the do or die affairs that they have been.
Wilfred Kamau said that issues of 2022 were not broached as it was it was too early to engage in such politics just as the country was beginning to heal.
''We discussed issues to do with bringing the country together. We also had discussions on how to ensure that there are no tensions in the country after elections because that has always been the case every time we have elections. I told Baba that if you say a word then the tensions will go down,'' the GEMA chairman told a mainstream media outlet in an interview.
David Ndii, NASA's strategist who was part of the meeting, echoed those sentiments, saying that the discussions were centred on the Kenyan people and not individual interests.
The meeting comes in the context of newfound love between Raila Odinga and his political arch-nemesis President Uhuru Kenyatta following the dramatic handshake at Harambee house.
Communities from which the two come from have been locked in tensions and suspicions for the longest time.
The meeting is further evidence that these historical tensions have begun to thaw.
