Kibaki and Raila will begin the joint rallieas in Eldoret Town that still houses thousands of IDPs, before proceeding to Chepalungu in North Rift.

On Friday the two will be in Central Rift Valley, Molo, Kuresoi and Nakuru towns.

They will then address similar joint rallies in Naivasha on Saturday.

A statement from the Presidential Press Service (PPS) confirmed the issue saying, "there will be no cabinet meeting tomorrow since the President, the Prime Minister and a big team will begin a three day tour of teh Rift Valley Province.
