HENRY KAPATA SHEDS MORE LIGHT ON THE MINISTERS VISIT TO KAZUNGULA BORDER POST
He writes…
Just in case you missed it, yesterday the Minister of Information and Media and Chief Government Spokesperson Hon. Cornelius Mweetwa, MP alongside his Defence counterpart Hon. Ambrose Lufuma, MP conducted a verification exercise at Kazungula Border Post. The exercise focused on the documentation process of imported GMO mealie meal destined for the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Here are the key highlights from their visit:
✅ Multiple stakeholders are closely monitoring the importation process of mealie meal by the Zambia National Service (ZNS) from South Africa, bound for the Democratic Republic of Congo.
✅ Hon. Mweetwa emphasised that the absence of arrests for disseminating falsehoods about the matter reflects the absence of political interference in police operations.
✅ He reiterated that the importation of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) Mealie Meal from South Africa adheres to legal protocols.
✅ Defence Minister, Hon. Ambrose Lufuma, highlighted ZNS’s selection due to its reputation for trustworthiness and discipline in carrying out tasks.
✅ Hon. Lufuma addressed the increased demand for local mealie meal being smuggled into neighbouring countries, prompting the decision to import the commodity for business purposes.
✅ He assured the nation that locally-offloaded mealie meal is GMO-free, dismissing fears raised by certain quarters.

Govt seams to have missed it. The smuggling of meliemeal is a project for PF after private mealers were dislodged with the coming in of Zns project.
Let UPND MPs raise the issue of removal of immunity for ECL, and all this nonsence will be gone.
PF, through ECL store so much money and are able to buy off any amounts of ubunga to ground the New deal.
New deal learn to tactically move and curbe PF strategies. Chagwa is the financier and Mwamba and group are the implementers. Consider also that HH is the most hated and the PF are still in denial of the loss in 2021. There’s still an underhand objective with Edith as one of the main players. Wake up UPND you’re our party and will soon prove it.
