    "content": "(Turkana North, JP) asked the Cabinet Secretary for Wildlife and Tourism: (a) whether he was aware of harassment of fishermen by Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) officers and whether there were plans in place by KWS in Loyangalani, Marsabit County, to return the fishing gears and other items confiscated from fishermen in June 2017 to date along Sibiloi and Southern Island areas of Lake Turkana waters; (b) why fishermen arrested in Lake Turkana are charged in courts of law in Marsabit instead of Lodwar Law Court which are 500 kilometres and 40 kilometres away, respectively; and, (c) what plans are in place by the Government to demarcate the Lake Turkana waters to identify and isolate legal and illegal fishing grounds to avoid unnecessary arrests and harassment of fishermen and measures put in place by the Government to align Lake Turkana waters with county boundaries to facilitate ease of both governance and administration of justice for offences committed in Lake Turkana waters."
