    "content": "However, diplomacy will always be our first line of response. In this regard, I call on Kenyans to be patient as we resolve the issue of Migingo Island. I am in constant communication with the President of the Republic of Uganda on this matter, and we have agreed to resolve the issue amicably through demarcation of the boundary by the Joint Kenya/Uganda Boundary Review Committee. As a member of the East African Community (EAC), we are bound by the Treaty of the EAC to resolve all our disputes peacefully. Indeed, any differences that may arise out of such disputes cannot outweigh the huge benefits we all derive from our co- operation. I wish to reiterate that our country will continue to play a frontline role in international affairs. Kenya is guided by the desire to entrench peaceful co-existence, expand trade and promote mutual co-operation among nations. We shall abide by our international obligations so that Kenya can take its rightful position in the family of nations. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in order to improve security and bring delivery of services closer to our people in line with the demands of the majority of Members of this august House, we are in the process of enhancing the status of the remaining constituencies into districts."
