Eti they (cartels) bought subsidized maize from NCPB at 2300 and sold it back to NCPB at 3600. Others bought from uganda at 1600 and sold to ncpb at 3600. Govt should just get out of this maize business. Let maize farmers sell to the market just like potato, rice, wheat, fish, milk etc farmers do. That strategic grain reserve is just a channel for theft of wanjiku funds.

Maize reported to be 17B, Did i hear from kiunjuri on national tv that some of those deliveries were just phantom deliveries..and that some delivery notes were photocopied several times over and presented over and over again for payment. So it's possible the line that traders bought from UG is not entirely true. I think Kenya is rotten Society

Now KEBS says 65% of maize at NCPB stores is contaminated with aflatoxins due to poor storage and is unfit/poisonous for human consumption. NB aflatoxins are major cancer causing agents and also paralyse the liver and kidneys. Why is jumbiree doing this to us? #cancerReloaded Rink: 7pm TV news. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih...pmc/articles/PMC1314947/

This being Kenya, someone is trying 1) frustrate uhuru's efforts to do an audit by destroying the maize in stores 2) since stores are full, have good maize destroyed so they can supply afresh This is rotten society indeed. By the way, why does govt still buy maize and then sell to millers? Why can't millers buy directly from farmers? Like happens with Rice?Still wondering why govt finding it hard pay debts? Kiunjuri should go for benchmarking trip to mwea rice scheme

Uphill task. Maybe the condition for the docket to shift from yuarapii was that it be given to cs of their choice. Someone they'll be able to take round in circles

Where is the economic sense of NCPB? Buy maize from "farmers" at Ksh 3600/- Sell the maize at 2000/- to millers  What determines the price? If Uhuru is serious he needs to create a commodities exchange and do away with NCPB the silos can be used as storage. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.
