The government will not compensate fishermen displaced by the construction of the Likoni footbridge linking Mombasa island and the mainland.

In a public participation meeting at Starehe School in Likoni yesterday, Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) officials told the fishermen not to expect any compensation from the Sh1.9 billion project.
