“MV Banyas 1 left Lamu Port for Oman on Saturday at 2pm. “It is the high time that livestock keepers invest in special trucks and lorries to ferry animals to the Lamu port. A simple bale of hay goes for not less than Sh300 ($2.44) at the Lamu port,” said Mr Masinde. “Sincerely speaking, the livestock export business to Oman through the Lamu port is providing the much-needed relief for pastoralists amid an unprecedented drought crisis,” said Mr Bunu. The ship docked at the Lamu port from the Suez Port in Egypt on October 14and left for the Port of Salalah in Oman on October 21.
