Abstract
The study analyzed the capacity building needs of artisanal fisherfolks in North
Central, Nigeria. The Data were collected with the use of a questionnaire and
analysed using frequency, percentages, mean score and Correlation. The results
showed that about 99.2% of the fishers were male and the mean age of the fishers
was 43.9ears. The mean years of experience were 24.3. The mean quantity of
catch per day was 17.9 Kg and 6 persons was the average household size. The
