They say necessity is the mother of invention\u2026 and that seems to be the case for one entrepreneur in Zambia. \n \nThe country\u2019s reliance on imported foreign fuel has led to years of price hikes and shortages at the petrol pumps \u2013 which lead in turn to panic buying.\n \nBut Mulenga Mulenga kept his head and switched on his brain \u2013 using the crises as inspiration for finding a new source of fuel. \n \nIt\u2019s currently small-scale with his company producing hundreds of litres of petrol a day from waste plastic \u2013 but his plan now is to scale that up to two million litres a day.\n \nSo is this a viable solution to Zambia\u2019s reliance on foreign fuel?\n \nPresenter: Alan Kasujja (@kasujja)
