ANNOUNCEMENT
The Management of the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Authority, (NaFAA) has with immediate effect ordered Fishermen across the nine Coastal County to resume fishing while they make their payment for the 2024 fishing season.
NaFAA Management is saying that fishermen in the coastal counties should go about fishing beginning February 20, 2024 to enable them pay their fishing license fees for the 2024 fishing season.
The Management of NaFAA said fishermen can fishing from now to March 30, 2024 while they make their payments to NaFAA compliance and enforcement teams currently assigned across the nine coastal counties.
It can be recalled the Houses’ Committee on Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries has been negotiating with the Fisheries Authority over the payment of the 2024 fishing license fees after some Fanti Fishermen were calling for reduction in the fees.
The Fanti Fishermen have since called on other fishermen across Liberia to desist from the payment of the 2024 fishing license fees, thus causing a huge reduction in the payment of fees across the nine coastal counties.
