It connects people going to Webuye from Lugari, Eldoret, Kakamega, Kisumu and Bungoma.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, there are children who cross the road along that junction all the way from Lugari to Eldoret, yet there are no people to guide them.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I am truly humbled that my colleagues have come out strongly on this Motion. I believe that when this Motion goes to the relevant office, it will be a self-executing Motion. This is so that it is not just a Motion that will lie somewhere in the shelves. The county executives need to ensure that even in their county budgets, they are able to provide for issues of colostomy bags and palliative care products and all that.
