Mr. Chanda said this has resulted in ZNS continuing to offload cheap mealie meal in Kasama and surrounding districts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you check districts around Kasama, most of them have the cheaper mealie meal produced by ZNS; this has been made possible because we have continued offloading maize,\u201d Mr. Chanda explained.<\/p>\n<p>He said ZNS is also supplying the commodity to Kasama Shoprite, which has been stocked with mealie meal stating that customers can purchase at their convenience without panic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI personally visited Kasama Shoprite, and I can assure you that there is enough mealie-meal for the people,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Chanda also disclosed that the Agency has sufficient maize stock in its strategic food reserves for selling to the public under community sales. Mr. Chanda noted that the agency has stocks from both the 2022 and 2023 marketing seasons.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Kasama District Commissioner Elizabeth Goma advised people in dire need of maize to reach out to her office. \u201cI want to advise those families struggling to buy mealie meal to enter into partnerships so that they are able to procure even a 50-kg bag of maize, which they can share,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zambia\">Zambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zambia.
