President HICHILEMA Commissions Zambia’s Largest Urea Plant By Ruth Chayinda President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA has officially commissioned Zambia’s largest urea fertiliser plant, which will produce 300,000 tonnes of fertiliser annually. The facility, owned by the Wonderful Group of Companies, is now the second-largest urea plant in Africa and forms part of a US$641 million industrial complex. The project also includes an 85-megawatt power plant and an ammonia plant capable of producing 180,000 tonnes of fertiliser. Speaking at the commissioning ceremony, President HICHILEMA urged investors to prioritise the energy sector, highlighting its critical role in driving economic development. He stated that the establishment of the urea and compound D fertiliser plants positions Zambia to become a fertiliser manufacturing hub in the region. The President added that the new facilities are expected to enhance food security and contribute to stabilising the national currency. President HICHILEMA also directed the Minister of Lands to urgently resolve any outstanding land issues related to the project site.
