The president met the leaders at the office of the outgoing Mombasa Governor Ali Joho.
Leaders present at the meeting included Joho, Mombasa Governor-elect Abdullswamad Sheriff Nassir, Kilifi Governor Gideon Mung'aro, Mombasa Deputy Governor-elect Francis Thoya, Embakasi East MP Babu Owino, Samburu West MP Naisula Lesuuda, outgoing Murang'a Woman Representative Sabina Chege and her Wajir counterpart Fatuma Gedi and other MPs and senators.
After the brief meeting that lasted 30 minutes, President Kenyatta led the leaders to Barka Restaurant in Old Town, where they had late lunch.
The president, who appeared jovial, was dressed down in a blue pair of jeans trousers, a shirt and white sports shoes.
Videos showed the president greeting residents as he and other leaders walked from Barka Restaurant toward Digo Road.
