we have to certify where are they bringing this frozen fish, what is the health status, how is being stored, we inspect the cold-room.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have inspectors in Lagos, Abuja and others who go there to certify that the frozen fish being brought into the country is in very good condition,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He said that government had also installed monitoring systems in Abuja and also one in Lagos to monitor the activities of the fishing vessels.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the artisanal sub sector, we have been able to register the canoes and build up the capacity of artisanal farmers as well as supplying them with inputs, canoes, fishing gears and other equipment that will help them to increase their production.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the aquaculture sub sector, we have established what we call fish farm estates, feeds farm clusters, and other activities that will stimulate the aquaculture production in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have also intervened on the whole value chain in terms of the production, processing and also the marketing structure<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have also provided processing equipment, storage equipment and enhanced a structured market facilities that will help the aquaculture sub sector to grow,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking with newsmen, African Union Commission, AUC, Ms Panduleni Elago, promised that Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme, CAADP would support artisanal fish farmers and small-scale fish farmers to bridge the gap existing fish demand in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>Elago, who is CAADP Advisor, said fish is one of the healthiest and cheapest proteins to human being.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFish is one of the healthiest and cheapest proteins to human being, and as we strive to end hunger in Africa by 2025, we also seek to support all those involve in the fisheries sector; small scale farmers, the non-state actors and civil societies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Ernest Aubee, The Head of Agriculture and Food Security Division of the ECOWAS Commission, said that ECOWAS had collaborated with the Nigerian Navy to protect the territorial waters of the sub-region from criminal activities as it affects fish production.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, ECOWAS is putting a lot of emphasis on fisheries and aquaculture, and it is in this light the European Union, and the African Commission came together to develop a fisheries governance programme for Africa called PESCAU.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Federal Government says the demand for fish exceeds 3.6 million metric tons but the country is only able to produce about 1.2 million metric tons.
