• 10 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the people of Somalia used to go fishing in the Somalia areas, but as we speak now, they are not allowed to go there because that border has been closed. They are not allowed to go fishing. So, this issue has really affected them. It is not only the fishing issue, but the border has been closed and so, there is no business going on between the Kiunga-Somalia Border. Other borders, as I said, are operating as usual. view

• 10 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Pardon! I am saying the issue of pirates and insecurity is everywhere and not in Kiunga only. So, if we say that we are closing Kiunga Border, then it means you are isolating the people of Lamu East in this issue. That is because other borders like Wajir are operating. Why not Kiunga? We need to have our security firm and make sure that those people can do their businesses as they used to. view
