Millers Thursday warned of further maize flour price increases as the government said it was planning to release stocks of the produce in the market in coming days to check the rising cost of the staple.

Millers said the shortage of maize was getting worse with a 90-kilogramme (kg) bag having risen by 39 percent to Sh3,200 over the past two weeks.
