@BLG well said my friend. You need not say more

Topic closed ...'its our/my time/turn to eat ' says VVS....the most ardent anti-corruption campaigner here VVS is now in it....a shielder and defender of corruption... forget about Kibaki , Raila and Ruto....

Horton blending by changing the packaging....worse than cemetry theft..

@Fundaah....this is a scam that our politicians are looking for a scape goat. Kibaki had said earlier that the fertilizer should be given to small scale farmers for FREE....pray, tell.....why is the ministry of agriculture "selling" it then?

In 2001, I operated a small Duka in Nakuru. In mid-December, Uchumi realised that they had over-stocked X-mas cards and Offered them at a big discount - sh20 instead of sh150.

I went and bought 3 dozen and sold them in my shop at sh50 a piece. Was that unfair?

In the 1990s when Simeon Nyachae was minister for agriculture, there was a subsidy programme for maize. NCPB bought at sh400 and sold at sh300. Traders bought in the morning, re-packaged from NCPB branded bags and sold back to NCPB in the afternoon! Those with insider connections just got the paper-work signed without moving a single grain!!

Subsidies are a waste of money!! They distort the market and create a simple avenue for theft
