Muchinga Province Permanent Secretary Captain Davison Mulenga has disclosed that Tanzanians are now flooding Nakonde,border town,Chinsali, due to cheap fuel in Zambia.
Captain Mulenga confirmed the development today in a telephone interview.
The Permanent Secretary says Zambian is one of the countries in the region with cheap fuel which is attracting people from neighbouring countries.
He says people from Tanzanian are the ones flooding filling stations in Nakonde, Chinsali because the commodity is too expensive in their home country.
Captain Mulenga says this development is causing fuel shortage in the border town and Chinsali district.
He says people of Chinsali are now relying on Mpika because Tanzanians are unable to reach the area.
“It is very true that people from neighbouring countries like Tanzania are coming in Zambia in search of fuel,” he says.
“Fuel in their country is expensive, so they are now taking advantage of the cheap fuel in Zambia.
But this has become a burden because the commodity is becoming scarce in Nakonde and Chinsali,”.
Captain Mulenga says he will engage the Ministry of Energy to iron out the matter at hand.
HA HA HA THIS IS PURELY A WARNING THAT OUR FUEL IS GOING UP SHORTLY
PF CERTAINLY DOES WORK IN MYSTERIOUS WAY
LET AND INDEPENANT OBSERVER TELL US THE TRUTH

The PF are keeping prices low until elections are done. Then they will hike prices like no man’s business.
Imisango ba PF.

FORWARD IWE
its becoause the kwacha has lost value
A sign of pf economic development
KIKIKIKI
WHERE DO WE MAKE IT ?????????
BREAKING NEWS ??
THOSE BOXES BEING OFF LOADED ARE COOKING OIL
CHEAP COOKING OIL
We know their tricks. They are just waiting
for elections to pass and the price of fuel will skyrocket. Then they will tell us to use public transport “if you cannot afford fuel”
In the unlikely even that PF comes back then the tables will turn. It will zambians flocking to tuduma and other border towns across to buy cheap fuel. Fuel in zambia will reach K30 per lt.
If someone comes from UK or US and they are using the pound or dollar they definitely scream that Zambia has the cheapest real estate market, will that be news?
When logic eludes you.
In 2011 fuel was how much per litre? Nizingati manje mu 2021 for some one to say it’s cheap.
Aristotle, not when you are buying in new Kasama or Roma.
Ama levels bosses.
I think every country knows the fact that there is a huge potential for business development in Zambia. Many countries are already associated with our nation, and many foreign companies are planning to invest in Zambia.
And HH and his supporters are spreading lies that there is shortage of fuel in Zambia.
I am sure there will be more countries like Tanzania that would benefit Zambia, economically.
Only because of President Lungu’s initiated schemes such as the ERP, empowerment program, FRA, etc. the country manage to bring economic development even affecting hard due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
It is just a stating!!!! We all have to witness more incredible development of our Christian Nation under President Lungu!!
We must appreciate the hard work invested by President Lungu’s administration. It plays an important role in taking Zambia towards the path of development
Haters are gonna criticize our President for no reason. Remember when rallies were banned by the ECZ, they were saying that President Lungu did this to block HH. They tend to speak nonsense.
Meanwhile, HH is spending millions of dollars on PR to promote him ahead of elections… Lol?????
Zambia is becoming a great example of development to other African countries. All thanks to President Edgar Lungu.
Where are those dull people who were shedding crocodile tears by claiming that the petrol price in Zambia is high?
