“Continued spending on infrastructure that improves the investment environment for food production which will lead to higher levels of food security as a strategy to reduce food based inflation should also be a priority.”

“Affordable housing should be seen as key enablers for sustainable development and one that will have a lasting impact on the people in both rural and urban areas of the country.”
