The Farmers Party has sued Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi for contracting Zambian farmers to grow maize for export to Kenya.
The party, through its Secretary-General Simon Kamangu, is opposed to the decision to contract the Zambian farmers who are to undertake large scale cultivation of maize to meet the demand for the produce in the country.
