Former Works and Supply Minister Mike Mulongoti says Zambia has the capacity to have election materials printed locally.

In an interview with Qfm news, Mr. Mulongoti said it is therefore important for the Electoral Commission of Zambia to consider local printing companies to print election materials for any future elections.

He said it is wrong for some stakeholders to insinuate that the country has no capacity to carryout the printing of ballots.

Mr. Mulongoti has further appealed to government to invest in the government printers in order to avoid overspending on the exercise that can be carried out within the country.

He said there is need to empower local printing companies by giving them business of handling the printing of ballots for elections.
