Wiper Leader Kalkonzo Musyoka and Senate Assembly Majority Aaron Cheruiyot were Monday missing even as the bi-partisan talks continued at the Bomas of Kenya.
Speculations mounted on their absence even as the Minority leader at the National Assembly Opiyo Wandayi stepped up to co-chair the meeting on behalf of Kalonzo.
Details accessed by Nairobi Leo, however, indicate that the Wiper leader and the Kericho senator were absent since they were out of the country.
Wandayi, though he did not disclose the reason why they were out, said the two will be back in the county on Tuesday.

Kalonzo being the leader of the Azimio team is key in shepherding the talks and ensuring the overall objective is attained.
Despite their absence, National Dialogue Committee termed the ongoing talks at Bomas of Kenya as successful.
The Kenya Kwanza and Azimio leadership in the talks said they were satisfied with the progress of the talks.
The talks entered the third day on Monday.
Leader of Majority in the National Assembly Kimani Ichung'wah assured that the committee will not be distracted by remarks being made by politicians out there.
"What is being said out there will not determine our discourse. We will ignore all the noise," he explained.
