President William Ruto on Monday held talks with former Meru Governor Kiraitu Murungi days after the letter complained that the region was being excluded from government.
Kiraitu had last month claimed that President Ruto had excluded the region from top government appointments since the formation of the broad-based government.
In photos by the Presidential Communication Service, the President held talks with Kiraitu at State House, Nairobi.
In December, Kiraitu claimed that despite the Meru community ranking position five in the order of the population of the country's main tribes, the community received a raw deal from the government.
In a terse statement, the veteran politician called on President Ruto's Kenyan Kwanza administration to consider the community's numbers and appoint its sons and daughters to government.
According to Kiraitu, the Meru community had suddenly disappeared from government over the last few years, forcing him to speak for his people.
"Our problem is, how come Meru suddenly disappeared from Kenya's political map? We are number five in providing a multitude of votes for any government,'' Kiraitu claimed.
The former minister claimed that the Meru people are unhappy that in the latest appointments by President Ruto, the Meru region did not get any slot.
"If it was not about a Cabinet position how come we did not get even an ambassador appointment in this government? Our people are miserable,'' Kiraitu said on Saturday.
"We are saying that the Meru people are tired of being taken for granted by this government and Meru people will not be political nomads anymore.''
Kiraitu had said Meru people were yet to reap benefits from the government despite the massive votes saying they played a major role in the Kenya Kwanza victory.
"Meru people want to be treated equally with other people, with other regional blocs, we have a right to be in this country just like the others have a right,'' Kiraitu said.
