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/

I think that's not true. 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

Which efforts? Toothless talk ~ bordering on incompetency.

Will Kiunjuri be able to streamline the Agriculture Ministry really?

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 Shame on you 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.

I pass by the Nairobi Industrial area NCPB at 7.00 am everyday, and there are big lorries with TZ number plates lining up to offload some kind of load, who is fooling who?
