On 15. 3.2017 when the parties were scheduled to show cause why the suit should not be dismissed for want of prosecution in terms of order 17 rule 2 of the Civil Procedure Rules, Mr. Kiongo asked the court to dismiss the suit because the applicants had failed to come to court to show cause why the suit should not be dismissed.

2. I find that the parties have not shown cause to the satisfaction of the court why the suit should not be dismissed.

3. In the circumstances, this suit is dismissed.

4. It is so ordered.
