Seven outboard motors have been given to fishers in Senya Beraku. The donation was made following a robbery attack that recently happened in the area. The motors are 40 horsepower each.
The Minister for Fisheries and Aquaculture, Emelia Arthur, was present for the ceremony. She was joined by the Member of Parliament for Awutu-Senya West, Gizella Akushika Tetteh-Agbotui. This action was directed by the President of the Republic of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama.
These outboard motors are intended to help the fishers restart their work. The robbery attack had impacted their ability to go out to sea.
The donation was made to victims of the robbery attack. This shows support for the affected fishing community.
The specific details of the robbery attack were not provided in the report.
This initiative aims to restore livelihoods damaged by criminal activity.
