Even though details of President Uhuru Kenyatta's meeting with his political nemesis Raila Odinga remaining scanty, the latter is set to act as Kenya's special envoy, reports the Sunday Nation.
Last week, the two protagonists mended fences with Raila insisting that the decision to work with Uhuru was 'painful' but important for the nation.
"It was not easy as people may think. It was painful but certainly things will work for the country," said Raila at a funeral on Friday.
But according to the Nation, Uhuru may have assigned Raila a stature of statesmanship where he would be deployed to various hotpots in Africa as Kenya's special representative.
As part of the deal, the paper reports, Raila will have special offices in Addis Ababa, where the AU sits.
"He will have an office in Addis Ababa where he will coordinate with the African Union," a source said.
In his new roles, Raila will be accorded treatment of that of a head of state and the same was manifested in Kisii on Friday where the County police commander was in charge of his convoy.
Back at Nairobi, the ODM leader is expected to occupy offices in Harambee House where Uhuru sits, a claim which his confidants have however denied.
