Fishermen operating in Lake Victoria are a happy lot after the Treasury allocated Sh325 million to improve fish landing sites. On Thursday, Treasury CS Ukur Yatani while reading the 2021-22 Budget said the funds would enhance rehabilitation of fish landing sites along the shores of Lake Victoria.

Guda said they have identified six landing sites to begin with before they extend to other beaches.
