    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Allow me to first make my maiden speech. I know it has been long, but after resisting, I had a number of petitions in Homa Bay which have interfered with my being here. Nyatike is a constituency bordering Tanzania and Uganda, in the lake. I am happy with the Motion that is here today because Nyatike, being one of the constituencies bordering these two countries, has a number of challenges. Our main preoccupation or source of livelihood has mainly been fishing, but the industry is currently dead because of interference from our bordering countries, mainly from Uganda. I wish to inform this House today that Nyatike is the only constituency in this country where we raise two flags of two different nations every morning. Uganda is claiming part of Nyatike and Kenya is also authoritatively claiming it. That is why I am in this House here today."
