A diplomatic row between Kenya and Uganda is brewing. And its over the ownership of a tiny island in Lake Victoria.

Kenyan parliamentarians have expressed outrage over remarks made by Uganda's president Yoweri Museveni on Monday that the disputed Island of Migingo belongs to Kenya but the waters around it belong to Uganda.

Despite a joint survey team having been set up by Kenya and Uganda to resolve the dispute diplomatically, Kenya's Mp's now want the African Union and the United Nations' security council to resolve the row.

The BBC's Anne Mawathe has sent us this report.
