Minister of Finance and Economic Planning Sosten Gwengwe has announced that the country will stop importing Police uniforms.

Speaking in Parliament, Gwengwe said instead the uniforms will be made locally.

He has also told Parliament that going forward no food rations will be imported instead Police officers will be given allowances to buy their food locally.

Gwengwe said this will be effected after current contracts elapse. Later speaking to MIJ Online, Jean Sendeza Homeland Security minister, said Malawi cannot continue importing food rations when the country has enough food.

She said, food allowances that will replace the food rations will be determined by the Police administration.
