New Modern Fish Market Commissioned in Homa Bay, Kenya
What happened
William Ruto commissioned a modern fish market in Homa Bay, which is located on the shore of Lake Victoria. The market was completed during the broad-based government, though construction plans began before the current political cooperation agreement. Traders reported that the facility provides a clean environment for business and includes cold storage for fresh fish.
