Fears are rife among many Kenyans that the cost of maize flour will skyrocket this week. This is after the millers deplete the stock of the subsidized maize that saw the cost of maize floor regulated at 90 shillings since mid-last year. The stock runs out at a time when the country continues to face severe drought in some counties like Kajiado where many primary school pupils are yet to report back to schools due to drought. But the chair of the agriculture committee in the national assembly Silas Tiren say the government subsidized maize floor can last until early February and warned miller to exhaust the stock before hiking the prices.
