    Migingo island is a small rocky outcrop in the middle of Lake Victoria that's causing big trouble between two African nations. While the island is marked on maps and official documents as belonging to Kenya; the Ugandan government claims that Migingo Island is in Ugandan waters and that it is therefore illegal for Kenyans to fish there. The rich fishing ground has attracted fishermen from both Kenya and Uganda, three hours and six hours away respectively.
