    "content": " The Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee now purports to have a girlfriend from Homa Bay Town. Hon. Kaluma can be proud as the Member for Homa Bay Town. We are serious people. That aside, it is true, as Hon. Ichung’wah said, that we are dealing with the high seas but sometimes, we forget inland waters, the same waters that have produced great men and women like myself. When you are growing up, you are told that if you eat fish, you become brilliant. I encourage the relevant Committee to consider bilateral agreements with Uganda and Tanzania. The agents we met yesterday agreed that they are willing to work with us. Their cooperation is limited to boundaries. We must look at the issue of shared resources. We need to have a similar agreement for inland waters. Our fishermen should not be taken to Uganda and forced to eat raw fish, with all our intelligence, and made to pay fines because of a fight over resources in Lake Victoria. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
