Member of Parliament for Blantyre North Francis Phiso has described the Affordable Input Program (AIP) as a flop for failing to meet set guidelines to address hunger situation in the country.
Phiso who was contributing to the 2023-2024 mid-year budget review statement cited reduced number of beneficiaries as a major setback in the program urging the government to revisit the initiative.
