United Party for National Development (UPND) President Hakainde Hichilema says he hopes government’s intentions to start blending fuel in the country will not end up as mere political rhetoric.

 

Energy, Mines and Water Development Permanent Secretary Charity Mwansa recently disclosed to Qfm News that government will in the next few weeks float a tender for the supplying of Ethanol and setting up of a plant where the blending of fuel in the country will be processed.

But Mr. Hichilema has told Qfm News in a phone interview that his party wants the PF government to go ahead and implement the idea considering the high fuel pump price.

Mr Hichilema says he does not expect the announcement by government to be a mere experiment as has been the case with the many unimplemented pronouncement.

He says there is need to always plan well before making any policy pronouncements to avoid failure to implement them.
