"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I too have been privy to this saga of Migingo Island and Mageta Island where the fishermen have been fishing for a long time. We must understand and appreciate what Sen. M. Kajwang’ talked about. Besides the ethnicity and political divide between the two countries, there are also the economic interests. For example, Migingo Island is rich in various types of fish. It is important that we must establish our border integrity and our superiority, not in any level of being superior to any country, but our integrity. Everybody knows that Migingo Island and the surrounding islands solely belong to Kenya. That is not in dispute. This is because when the cartographic designers did their work and put beacons, the boundaries were clearly defined. Some people may have distorted one or two beacons, but the boundary is well defined. It is a high time that the Kenya Government, led by President Uhuru Kenyatta, established its presence in the way of military in Migingo Island. The Government should help the fishermen to realize their potential in fishing what rightfully belongs to Kenya. Fish resources are not just about Mbuta or the resources of Nile Perch that is being fought for on this small little island---"
