Thieves last night broke into one of the Zambia National Service -ZNS- at Kasumbalesa Boarder which was housing imported eagles’ mealie meal meant for export to the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Colonel Nyone says the incident is a setback to the noble efforts of the service of supplementing government efforts of generating additional resources to complement those coming from the treasury.
She has said in a statement issued to Phoenix News that ZNS working with the Zambia Police will fiercely pursue individuals behind this irresponsible criminal act to ensure they are brought to justice.
Colonel Nyone said the perpetrators risk facing not only charges related to breaking in and stealing bags of mealie meal but also a possible charge on illegally offloading Genetically Modified Organism -GMO- commodities on the local market, should they attempt to offload it on the Zambian soil.
