Are you aware of the traditional customs and procedures observed by fishermen before embarking on a trip to Lake Victoria?
In this article, we join Mzee Lucas Mazigi, a craftsman with 30 years of experience in canoe building in Mwanza, who shows us the steps involved in canoe construction, the traditions followed by fishermen before a trip, as well as the costs of building a canoe, which can reach the price of a luxury car.
He also tells us that fishing is not just a job but a cultural heritage and an economic opportunity.
