Seven new 40HP outboard motors have been given to fishermen in Senya Beraku. This action comes after a recent robbery attack on the community's fishing gear.
The donation was made by the Minister for Fisheries and Aquaculture, Emelia Arthur. She was joined by Gizella Akushika Tetteh-Agbotui, the Member of Parliament for Awutu-Senya West.
The support was directed by the President of Ghana. It is intended to help the fishermen recover from the losses they experienced.
The robbery attack happened last week. The full extent of the stolen items or damage was not immediately detailed.
These outboard motors are vital for the fishermen's work. They use them to go out to sea to catch fish.
The government stated this donation is to help restore the livelihood of the affected fishermen. It aims to boost their ability to continue fishing.
The community relies heavily on fishing. This support is seen as important for their economic well-being.
