Millers have opposed plans by Tanzania to export maize flour to Kenya to ease the current shortage, arguing this will destabilise the market and subject them to losses.

The processors argue they had been buying maize at Sh4,000 for a 90-kilo bag and bringing in finished product from Tanzania will render local flour uncompetitive.
