Nairobi — Top officials of the National Cereals and Produce Board are set to face charges Thursday in the fake fertiliser scandal.
Detectives, acting on the directives of the DPP, swiftly moved to arrest the officials for their alleged roles in the fertilizer fraud that led to an impeachment motion against Afgriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi. This development comes after an intensive probe by detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations headquarters.
The investigation also involved questioning officials from government agencies responsible for handling the fake fertilizer, including the Kenya Bureau of Standards and suppliers.
