Why fall out over a slice of sea?

Africa Daily

Available for over a year

A stretch of sea wanted by Kenya and Somalia. For years now, the two countries have been at loggerheads over a slice of the Indian Ocean, thought to be rich in oil and gas. Both Kenya and Somalia desperately want it, but can’t quite agree on who actually owns it. A case was filed with the International Court of Justice back in 2014. After several delays, hearings are expected this week - though Kenya's announced it will not take part. So, how did this dispute begin? Hosted by Alan Kasujja (@Kasujja on Twitter) #AfricaDaily
