Energy minister has reiterated that the fuel shortage in the country had nothing to do with the recent donation of fuel to neighboring Malawi.
Recently the Zambian government donated five million liters of fuel estimated at 5 million united states to Malawi to help with the help facilitate the funeral arrangements for its late president Bingu Wa Mutharika.
Energy minister Christopher Yaluma says it is unfortunate that politicians have continued to attribute the recent shortage of fuel in the country to the donation made to Malawi.
Speaking to QFM, Mr. Yaluma says people should understand and believe that the shortage was due to a leak in the pipes stating that the problem has since been rectified.
