Before I say what I would want say, I also would like to send my condolences to the people of Karachuonyo following the passing on of the great hon. Adhu Awiti. According to Standing Order 44, we do not come here to do work for a short time. It is a time when Members of Parliament are supposed to get responses from Chairpersons of Committees and the Leader of the Majority Party on issues concerning the constituents. In March, 2014, I raised a very important issue through a Statement. Through the Leader of the Majority Party, I wanted to know the plans the Government of Kenya has to deal with a very important issue of motorcycle riders, aka boda bodas . They are all over the country and yet, there does not seem to be any policy, law or help from the Government, apart from the regular harassment by police officers. It is now five months since I sought that Statement. We are almost through with this Session and yet, I am still unable to get a response from the Leader of the Majority Party. Could you, please, hon. Deputy Speaker, come to my aid?"
