Fertile Deception - Part 1

For nearly two years, a troubling scheme has been unfolding in the heart of Kenya's agricultural landscape. Unbeknownst to many farmers, what they believed to be subsidized fertilizer was, in fact, nothing more than ordinary sand cleverly disguised and sold at inflated prices. Our investigative team embarked on an undercover operation, delving deep into the intricate web of mining, packaging, and widespread distribution of this counterfeit product throughout the nation. In this expose', we unveil the shocking truth behind this deceptive practice.

Ruto can! Remember the 1000 Tshirts he sold 10 times at @ kshs 120 per unit as a youth winger? He colluded with warehouse workers and was paid a cool 1.2million for 1000 t-shirts. Ruto can do anything and scammers like him have come out of the woodwork since he became president.

[@danolasya]

People are so heartless in this country. I concur with the reporter. I saw this fertilizer last season at NCPB depot at Yala, Siaya county when I had gone to inquire about the subsidized fertilizer from the National Government. Thank God my instincts were against buying this GPC "organic fertilizer". I would be counting loses now. This government will show us dust with their get rich quick schemes. It's so unfortunate.

[@SakeKasir]

There's a fertilizer company in the interior part of West Pokot that purchases Yara fertilizer then adds rocks and other crushed maize cobs then repackages/brands them as Fanaka. The end product is very popular in the market. Let me know if you need directions. It's run by Indians.
