Mwai Kibaki along with opposition chief Raila Odinga signed an agreement on Friday to form a coalition government which possible put an end to a two-month crisis in Kenya which has claimed more than 1,500 lives.Two leaders,from the same stream now at loggerheads, ultimately reach to form a coalition government,sitting side by side, signed the accord outside the president's office.

Credit goes to the former UNO Secretary General,the first person from a black African nation to serve as Secretary-General was the chief mediator Kofi Annan and Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete, who heads the African Union.
'I am pleased to be able to tell you and the citizens of Kenya that the two leaders this afternoon completed work on - how to overcome the political crisis,' Annan told reporters.
'I commend all those whose efforts have made this possible,' he added.
MOU creates the post of prime minister and two deputy prime ministers to end the impasse following the controversial presidential elections which both leaders claim they won.
The premier will be from the party with the majority in parliament,which is currently held by Odinga's Orange Democratic Movement.
Annan urged parliament to convene soon to enact the necessary laws to flesh out the deal.
On Tuesday, Annan had suspended talks between government and opposition negotiators after they failed to agree on a power-sharing deal to resolve the crisis that erupted after Odinga accused Kibaki of rigging the December polls.

Ensuing political rioting and tribal fighting killed at least 1,500 people, displaced hundreds of thousands and heavily hit the economy.

Annan announced that talks will resume on Friday today to discuss longterm solutions.
