00:00 that some of the fertilizer that is stocked by NCPB was not certified by CEBS and therefore
00:07 the same have been said to be fake, not of the desired quality and therefore we call
00:15 upon the committee on agriculture to ensure that a report is tabled before the house and
00:25 the same is discussed so that those who are involved in the malpractice can be able to
00:30 book and we want the ECC to take up this matter as a matter of urgency, a probe be opened
00:37 and the culprits be arraigned before court so that they can answer the charges. In fact
00:44 we are more concerned about the officers of NCPB because they are the ones who received
00:49 the fertilizer in the NCPB stores and therefore it is questionable as to why they received
00:56 fertilizer that never went through Kenya Bureau of Standards. So we want those officers to
01:03 be brought to book, to be answerable, ECC to conduct their investigations as soon as
01:09 possible and those culprits be arraigned before a competent court.
