MONROVIA – A joint fisheries enforcement and compliance team has begun touring fishing communities across Liberia with the aim of ensuring the collection of the remaining 2020 license fees and at the same time creating massive awareness for the payment of the 2021 fishing license fees. The fisheries enforcement and compliance team comprising NaFAA, the Liberia National Coast Guard, Liberia Immigration Services, and the Liberia National Police is touring coastal beaches and also conducting sea patrols. Currently a southeastern team is touring fishing communities in Grand Bassa County following its initial tour of fishing communities at Bassa Point fishing communities through Marshall City Margibi County. Mr. Boeh who was accompanied by some technicians including Associate Directors Patrick Davies and Anthony Yokie stressed that no fishermen will go fishing without making full payment of their 2020 fishing license fees. More than 80 fishermen in little Bassa, and Bassa point fishing communities were ordered not to go fishing until they pay their 2020 fishing license fees.
