As Christians celebrate this momentous day, dipping into one's pocket to fork out that last ngwee and give to the needy is just as important.

Zambia Sugar also recorded an increase in share price of 25 ngwee.
The company declared a dividend of K16.35 ngwee per share up from K13.62 ngwee per share last year.
