Garissa Governor Ali Korane has urged his Tana River counterpart Dhadho Godhana to stop invading his territory and inciting communities by proposing development projects on the 'Garissa side'. "We will push through legal means that will recognise the Tana River as the boundary between Garissa and Tana River counties," Korane said. He said Garissa county occupies a 400km stretch along the River Tana that separates the two counties. Korane had said Tana River residents who are willing to settle in Garissa should coexist with local communities and stay as residents of Garissa county. During a visit by the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), Korane told the committee that they want the 'three-mile rule' abolished if it exists in the Kenyan statutes.
