President Ali revisits Meadow Bank Wharf to assess improvements
“The only problem we get now is the water, we get the toilet, we get the light, we get the security but we ain’t get water,” one of the fishermen said.
The rehabilitation of the wharf along with additional lighting was also raised.
“One of the things we want to do, is we want to make it easier for you all,” the President told the fishermen after listening to their concerns.
He further revealed that the road at the wharf will be rehabilitated but urged the fisher folk to do their part in the maintenance of the area.
President Ali also instructed that the design for the wharf be submitted within two weeks so that works on the wharf can be facilitated.
The Meadow Bank wharf serves residents of the city and surrounding communities with wholesale and retail fish and seafood on a daily basis.
