Fishermen in Kwahu District receive ten outboard motors

The Local Enterprise and Skill Development (LESDEP) on Wednesday presented 10 outboard motors worth GH¢67,800 to 10 fishermen in the Kwahu East District on hire purchase basis.

The outboard motors cost GH¢6,786 each and should be paid for within 18 months with two months grace period and a six-month guarantee.

Presenting the items the Eastern Regional Coordinator of LESDEP, Ms Fatahiya Zulka, urged the fishermen to put the outboard motors to effective use to increase fish production.
