Fishermen who sail beyond the set sea boundaries should face punishment, according to Dr. Victor Doke, a security lecturer at the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre.
Dr. Doke stated that the Fisheries Commission needs to enforce rules strongly.
He made this statement after armed robbers attacked 59 Ghanaian fishermen at sea recently.
The lecturer believes that enforcing these limits will help prevent future incidents.
These fishing zones are established to ensure safety and manage resources effectively.
Crossing these lines can put fishermen in danger and create conflicts.
Dr. Doke’s call emphasizes the importance of adhering to maritime regulations.
He wants the authorities to take strict action against those who disobey the rules.
