ARE THE VERY PEOPLE IN POLITICS, IN POSITIONS AT THE PUBLIC AND EDUCATIONAL SECTORS DO NOT KNOW..... GHANAIAN FISHERMEN WORK AT A TRADE HANDED DOWN GENERATION TO GENERATION,PLYING THE SAME WATERS, SOMETIMES IN THE SAME PRIMITIVE AND LEAKY BOATS, AS THEIR GRANDFATHERS AND FATHERS BEFORE THEM.
WHILE THEY TOIL FOR MEAGRE CATCHES, MODERN FISHING BOATS AND TRAWLERS FROM EUROPE, RUSSIA,CHINA STEAM ALONG THE COAST, FURTHER DEPLETING GHANA'S ALREADY OVERFISHED SHORE.
WHEN ARE WE GOING TO LEARN AND TO SHAPE AND TO PUT THE STATE OF GHANA ON A SHINNING PATH FOR THE PRESENT AND THE NEXT GENERATIONS.
ONLY WHEN WE HAVE THE VISION AND AIM TO PROVIDE TRAINED HUMAN REOURCE, ENABLING THE FISHERIES SECTOR TO MEET THE CHALLENGES OF THE FUTURE.
