The government will now supply millers with maize at 2300 shillings per 90 kilograms bag to ensure the subsidized maize flour reaches all parts of the country. To maintain the cost at 90 shillings the government will also facilitate transport of the subsidized maize to the millers. The announcement came as the ministry was put on the spot in parliament to explain the cause of the shortage of maize in the country and give details of the controversial importation of the Mexican maize.
