Fisherfolk at D’Edward Village, West Coast Berbice were told on Saturday last that they will soon benefit from a new wharf, shed and tarmac.

According to a press release from the Department of Public Information (DPI), Minister of Agriculture Zulfikar Mustapha made this disclosure during a meeting he held with them at the three-door koker in the area.

“We will be doing an estimate and we will try as much as possible to resurface the tarmac at this site so you can have a better facility… So we will also build that wharf and we will do the shed. I am hoping that within a month, we can start to do those things,” he was quoted as saying.
