Relationship between fishmongers and fisher-folks: a case study of Monai, Yuna and Fakun fishing villages of Kainji and Jebba lakes

This study assessed the relationship between fishmongers and fisherfolks in Monai, Yuna and Fakun fishing villages of Kainji and Jebba Lakes. 20 structured questionnaires were administered in each of the three villages to randomly selected fisherfolks. The study shows that low literacy and poverty level among most of the fisher-folks made them depend on fishmonger by hiring their fishing nets at exorbitant price, this has not allowed them to determine the prices of their catches, hence fishmongers have an influence on the livelihood of the fisher folks and their family.
