Supplement CDF with State Farms ,Jairos Ngoma

By Ashton Kelly Bunda     

Leadership Movement (LM) Secretary General Jairos Ngoma has implored UPND government to cushion young people and the ten provinces with state farms that will employ many people through agriculture and food security as they are succeeding with   the constituency  development funds(CDF).

Speaking d


speaking during the Burning Issue radio program on 5 FM on Thursday 1st June 2023 hosted by Zachariah Banda, Ngoma said Zambian leaders must put their priorities first  and that some of the resources  meant for constituency development funds (CDF) must be channeled to agriculture and food security.

The emotional Ngoma said the New Dawn administration leader President Hakainde Hichilema should give a task to every member of parliament (MP) to ensure their constituency produce a substantial amount of  agriculture products and live stock , maize among the prioritized.

“reintroducing state farms is the answer to mealie meal shortages the nation  encountered 2 months ago some monies meant for CDF should be allocated to food production , we don’t to see Zambians lining up for mealie meal, we don’t want history to repeat itself like what happened in the late 1980s ,some marriages are on the rocks  due to lack of food, “he stressed.

He said his party lead by Dr.Richard Silumbe will always support  projects that enhance food production  as well as empowering local power with land as inheritance  with  title deeds  documents serving as tickets for acquiring fertilizer and other agriculture implements from the government and other  stakeholders .


Asked by Burning Issue radio program host called Zack  host if agriculture is the only way to develop the nation, Ngoma responded that providing computers and desks in school is a good idea and the that  best  intention is to feed the young people to avoid malnutrition and help them  think well as they embark on building state farms inconjuction with the Zambia National service(ZNS).
