Leaders from Nyanza and Western regions have appealed for calm over the raging Maseno border row pitting Kisumu and Vihiga counties.

Governors Moses Akaranga (Vihiga), Wycliffe Oparanya (Kakamega), Cyprian Awiti (Homa Bay), Jack Ranguma (Kisumu), Cornel Rasanga (Siaya) and Okoth Obado (Migori) said the dispute is threatening to derail the gains of devolution in the Lake Basin region.
