Subject: Letter of Condolence to all Bodaboda riders and families Following the Death of His Excellency Rt Hon. Raila Amollo Odinga.

It is with deep sadness that Kenya Bodaboda Association (KBA) has learned of the passing of His Excellency Raila Odinga, former Prime Minister of the Republic of Kenya, an iconic figure of African democracy and tireless advocate for peace on the continent.

On behalf of all the members of Kenya Bodaboda Association (KBA), our partners in Kenya, Africa and around the world, we extend our most sincere condolences to all loved ones, to the family of the deceased, and to all those who shared his commitment to justice, freedom, and national unity.

His Excellency Raila Odinga will remain in our memories as a courageous and visionary leader, deeply committed to peace, whose journey has inspired many generations to work for democracy, dialogue, the stability of Kenya and the African continent. His political and moral legacy will continue to guide our actions and missions in support of good governance and the respect of civil rights.

In this time of mourning, KBA stands with the people of Kenya and reaffirms its solidarity with the teams of KBA and all of our representations across Kenya and Africa as whole. We share in their grief and join in their prayers for the eternal rest of this great African statesman.

It's our humble expression of our deepest sympathy.
