Fish farmers in Namokora Sub County in Kitgum district are stuck with over 10,000 mature fish in Wang Kwogo Valley Dam in Ladwogi Village due to lack of fishing gears. Alfred Omony, the Kitgum district Fisheries Officer, says the valley dam was constructed three years ago by the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries to supply water for livestock in the sub county.
President Yoweri Museveni recently announced that he has started using the army in the Luwero triangle, the Rwenzori region and other Fronasa bases to implement the plan which NAADS failed to implement over the last 17 years. He said the program will be rolled out next financial year.
