    "content": " Thank you for that clarification. Having raised that, there is a very critical issue that affects fishermen. The incident that occurred in Naivasha was a case of murder. In Suba North and neighbouring areas, many fishermen fight and kill each other because of space. I have heard the Cabinet Secretary say that they should go to demarcated areas. We have title deeds on land, but there are no title deeds on water. When you tell people to go to demarcated areas, where do they go? Could the Cabinet Secretary consider setting up a team to look at emerging issues in the lake? Almost every month, a fisherman is killed because people fight over scarce resources, and especially much more now that we have internationalised the practice with people undertaking aquaculture from other countries within the water. The water resource has become extremely small. Unless this problem is sorted out, we will have a major crisis. The Cabinet Secretary can tell us what the government seeks to do about this before we even talk about Uganda. Ugandans and Tanzanians always attack us, but we now attack each other because water has become scarce."
