Despite the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Authority (NaFAA) declaring that recent fishery agreement between Liberia and Senegal will benefit Liberia in areas including, employment, reduction in illegal fishing activities, and ensuring food security, a document in the possession of this newspaper reveals untold information about the controversial agreement.

The document, titled, “PROTOCOL ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE AGREEMENT OF FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE COOPERATION BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF SENEGAL AND THE GOVERNMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA,” confirms that the agreement between the two African states is yet to be attested by the Liberia’s ministries of Finance and Development Planning (MFDP) and Justice.

The document, however, discloses details about quantity of catch, catch report, quality of training under the agreement and fishing practices, which were not disclosed at NaFAA recent press briefing that was held at the Ministry of Information Culture and Tourism in Monrovia.
