WE DOING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO LOWER THE COST OF LIVING

Vice President Mutale Nalumango says government is working hard to grow the economy and ensure the living standards of people are better.

Mrs. Nalumango says government acknowledges that the current economic conditions are not conducive, something she attributed to climate change and other global factors.

She said this during her Vice President’s Question time in the National Assembly, when she responded to Mpika Member of Parliament Francis Kapyanga who wanted to find out what government is doing to ensure it improves the living standards of Zambian between now and 2026.

Ms. Nalumango said that government is firstly prioritising creating Jobs in various sectors of the economy to ensure most Zambians have an income.

And Mrs. Nalumango has assured farmers that have not received farming inputs that government will ensure the remaining farmers are given inputs by next week.

She was responding to Mkushi south member of parliament, Davies Chisopa, who wanted to know why farming inputs have not been distributed among farmers in his constituency.
