    "content": "You see, hon. Athman, in the build up to your request, and it is fair that it be read to the entire House, you said that before Operation Linda Nchi, the area residents depended mainly on fishing and agriculture as their source of income, and Kiunga is one of the major fish trading zones that neighbours Somalia. Operation LindaNchi was initiated more than two years ago and led to the closure of the Kiunga-Somalia Border, which has still not been re-opened. The natives cannot, therefore, go fishing in the neighbouring border waters, where the fish catches are impressive; neither can they trade with the neighbouring towns as they used to do before. The Operation Linda Nchi has had an adverse impact on the economic statuses of area residents, without them being duly compensated. It has also been observed that other borders which are prone to more insecurity like Wajir-Somalia border, Garissa- Somalia border, Nairobi-Somalia border via Wilson Airport and others are open to trade and the residents of those areas are still able to reap business profits, unlike the people of Kiunga. Hon. Jimmy Gethenji, this is about Operation Linda Nchi ; it is not so much about immigration. I think he wants to know when normalcy will resume so that they can fish and trade more with Somalia border residents."
