Hawa Koomsom attempts to define fish farming during her vetting

The Fisheries and Aquaculture Minister-designate Hawa Koomson has attempted to define fish farming as well as its advantages.

This was in response to a question by Bode MP, Samson Ahi during her vetting on Thursday.

The Awutu Senya East MP tried her best to define what Fish Farming is to Parliament's Appointments Committee.

She said, "Fish farming is the process of rearing of fish in reservoirs and fish ponds, etc..."

She also stated two advantages of fish farming in addition to the definition.

"It makes the farmer earn some income, it also increases fish for consumption in our community."

Madam Hawa Koomson said she will find out about the number of regions where fishing goes on.

"If I'm right, there are four fishing regions in Ghana, If I'm wrong, I will find out when I get the nod, " she said.

Hawa Koomson was the former Minister for Special Development Initiatives but President Akufo-Addo has decided to scrap the Ministry in his second term.
