Bonding cabinet

A three day cabinet retreat that aims to enhance unity and cohesion in the coalition government kicks off Thursday at the Serena Beach Hotel in Mombasa.

Led by the Grand Coalition Coordinating Committee, Cabinet Ministers and Assistant Ministers allied to PNU and ODM parties intend to reach consensus on contentious issues in the draft constitution.

They will particularly strive to iron out their differences over the devolution of power ahead of the publication of the draft legislation by the Nzamba Kitonga led Committee of Experts on Constitutional Review.

The cabinet will also discuss the trial of post-election violence suspects, International Criminal Court decision to take over Kenya's case and international pressure for reforms.

The retreat, according to the Presidential Press Service, is to enhance unity and cohesion in the Coalition and will be jointly addressed by President Mwai Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
