A photo taken on January 18, 2019, shows MV Mango Tree dredger as it lands at the Kisumu Port docks on Lake Victoria, western Kenya. The MV Mango Tree, is a dredger owned Mango Tree Group Limited, a Chinese company, which removes water weeds such as the water hyacinth plant and turns them into fertiliser for farming. Boats travelling along the lake and wanting to dock are slowed down by silting, pollution and weeds clogging the waterways. The thick green carpet of water hyacinth is choking again Kisumu bay, floating on the surface and blocking Kenya's main entry to the largest body of water in Africa. (Photo by Brian Ongoro/AFP Photo)
