Theย two leaders were seen extending their grief to the family as journalists and friends were busy taking pictures.

Matibaย died on Sunday while receiving treatment at Karen Hospital in Nairobi. He was 85.

Uhuruย eulogised him as a true Kenyan patriot in a televised speech from State House.

This is the first time, Raila is being seen with Ruto after the famous handshake between Uhuru and Raila on March 9.

During their meeting at Harambee house, Raila and Uhuru agreed to reconcile Kenyans.

Second Liberation icon Kenneth Matiba, once vibrant, eloquent and so full of life, is fighting for his life at Karen Hospital, Nairobi where he was rushed to on Wednesday. And with the family now casting their eyes on God for Matiba to get well soon, residents of Murangโ€™aโ€”where he hails fromโ€”have been urged to pray for the veteran and one-time presidential candidate.
