His call to be handed the infrastructure ministry was, however, denied.
All of these will possible if the Azimio coalition wins the August 9 elections.
The deal was sealed on Monday after Uhuru met with Sierre Leone's president and before Raila jetted to Rabai for MP William Kamoti's burial.
During the burial, Raila passed a condolences message to Uhuru, and Kalonzo, tellingly indicating that a deal had somewhat reached a convincing end.
The developments come even as the Wiper leader has secured a date with IEBC for clearance as a presidential candidate.
Kalonzo has been under pressure to return to Azimio and exhaust all the options available.
His party is on record urging him to shelve his ambitions and negotiate with Raila for a deal.
