The first consignment of cheap maize will arrive in the country on March 12, signalling relief to consumers.
Kenyan government and millers had by Wednesday not agreed on key issues surrounding the importation.

Millers have been locked out of maize imports after they refused to sign a memorandum of understanding with the government.
