Transport minister, Mr Chirau Ali Mwakwere, asked MPs not to jostle for regional or tribal appointments.
He urged them to focus on passing the Dialogue and Reconciliation Bill as agreed on during the joint parliamentary group meeting chaired by the President on Thursday.
"We need to change the Constitution and bring back peace that has been enjoyed by Kenyans since independence," he added.
Mwakwere said Coast residents want historical injustices and inequalities addressed.
He took issue with some leaders who have started demanding for positions based on the number of votes or the number of MPs they produced in Parliament.
"We need to give priority to the development agenda for Kenya. We need to move forward as a nation, not tribes," he said.
