Zambian authorities rejected social media claims stating that a grain export arrangement with Malawi collapsed due to financial disputes. Information Minister Cornelius Mweetwa characterized the allegations as fabricated and harmful after online circulation of a document falsely attributed to Foreign Affairs Minister Mulambo Haimbe and a counterfeit newspaper report. The spokesperson clarified that agricultural export matters fall under the Agriculture Ministry rather than the foreign affairs portfolios.
Mweetwa confirmed that the transaction between the neighboring nations remains active without complications. Malawian authorities announced plans to acquire 200,000 metric tons of maize valued at approximately K135 billion from Zambia to address domestic food supply challenges.
