It is now emerging that the national cereals and produce board distributed about 100,000 bags of suspected fake fertilizer from SBL Innovate Manufacturers Limited between 2022 and 2024. The director of SBL Innovate Josiah Kariuki who appeared before the National Assembly agriculture committee says that he had an agreement with NCPB to sell his product and that before the contract was signed NCPB took samples for testing. Kariuki who was taken to task by MPs for allegedly selling diatomite in the name of fertilizer denied the claims arguing that what he supplied to the market was the product tested and certified by KEBS.
