MOMBASA, KENYA: Kenya is leaving nothing to chance in tapping into the potential of the Blue Economy with strategies aimed at ensuring the country benefits from its largely unexploited marine Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).

Agriculture, Livestock Fisheries and Cooperative Cabinet Secretary Peter Munya said the government and its development partners will spend at least Sh12 billion in the Coast region to build capacity and improve fishing fleets into the deep sea with a view to ensuring Kenya benefits from blue economy resources.
