In Kambunli's fishing community, an alarming crisis is unfolding as fishermen report an unprecedented surge in fish suffering from severe skin infections.

These infections, marked by red, swollen lesions that rapidly develop into gaping wounds, have made the fish unsellable and unfit for consumption.

This crisis has created severe economic strain for the local fishermen who rely on their river catches for income. "The fish are now infected, with swollen red lesions that quickly turn into large, open wounds.

We can't sell them, and it's affecting our business badly," said Dauda Amadu Nda, a fisherman in the community.
