Fishermen in the flooded Lake Baringo have raised concerns over acute fish shortage. The water level in Lake Baringo is still high due to heavy rains experienced between April and September last year. She said they used to sell the fish surplus to Nairobi, Nakuru, Kabarnet, Marigat and Eldoret towns. County fisheries officer Matthias Boswony said there were thousands of fish in the lake by November and December last year. “In fact currently there is more fish in Lake Baringo compared to January and February 2020,” he said.
