For over a decade, Migingo Island has been a source of tension between Uganda and Kenya.
About:
Migingo is a 2,000-square-metre (0.49-acre) island in Lake Victoria. It is extremely densely populated.
Dispute:
The island is the center of a territorial dispute between Kenya and Uganda. Presently, the island is co-managed by both countries.
While fishing communities around Lake Victoria have seen their catches slowly diminish over the years, the deep waters surrounding Migingo abound with catch such as Nile perch. This is one of the main reason for both sides claiming the island.
