Liberia Sustainable Management of Fisheries Project-LSMFP

"The construction of the Fisheries Complex is not merely about infrastructure; it is about building institutional strength, enhancing service delivery, and ensuring long-term sustainability within Liberia's fisheries and aquaculture sector.

Under the leadership of His Excellency President Joseph Nyuma Boakai, Sr., this Government is committed to ensuring that Ministries, Agencies, and Commissions gradually transition from reliance on rented facilities to owning permanent infrastructure.
This shift will promote operational consistency, reduce long-term costs, and enhance institutional stability."

Official statement of Hon. Samuel A. Stevequoh, Minister of State for Presidential Affairs read by Amb. Charles Snetter at the Groundbreaking Ceremony of the Fisheries Complex

"The National Fisheries complex represents long-awaited relief for our dedicated staff and the fisher-folks who are the backbones of our coastal and inland communities. The facility will provide a permanent and centralized hub that improves efficiency, reduces operational costs, enhances service delivery, and stands proudly as a true one-stop center of excellence for fisheries governance and development." J Cyrus Saygbe Sr. Director General, The National Fisheries & Aquaculture Authority Republic of Liberia
