The stage is set for the formation of a government of national unity as President Uhuru Kenyatta races against time to implement his legacy projects -- the Big Four Agenda.

President Kenyatta has been consulting with key political players in the country such as Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader Raila Odinga, Kanu boss Gideon Moi and Wiper's Kalonzo Musyoka in what is understood to be part of consensus building that could see them nominate their allies for plum jobs in government.

Political analyst Herman Manyora said whatever is happening -- the talk of a government of national unity, post-election agreements and pushing Ruto allies out of the system -- is part of the wider game plan to ensure that President Kenyatta gains total control of the State.

"If you want to form a government of national unity you need the numbers, hence the agreement," he added, noting that the agreements help to strengthen the President in the face of a Jubilee falling-out.

Having sensed danger, a number of MPs, especially the nominated ones who did not heed President Kenyatta's call to attend the State House meeting, are toeing the line.
