Agriculture CS Mithika Linturi Has Been arrested.
Agriculture CS Mithika Linturi Has Been arrested: This comes after the Director of public Prosecution, ordered the arrest of CS Mithika Linturi and PS Paul Ronoh over the alleged fake fertilizer saga.
The two were reportedly summoned to appear at the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) for questioning but did not make an Appearance.
“We are looking for them. They were supposed to come here after being summoned but we are now looking for them,” said an official.
All this is happening even after the members of parliament passed the motion of impeachment against the said cabinet secretary.
During the debate, Rarienda MP Atiende Omollo stated, “I must confess that CS Linturi is my friend, and because he’s my friend, that’s why I’m supporting this motion. First of all, should the CS take responsibility for the motion and the issue at hand? The answer is YES.”
He added, “Why? Because we have it on his own authority. The document attached dated March 24th signed by him says ‘the ministry ensures that agricultural produce are of the right quality’, it is the ‘Ministry’ who is the head of Ministry? The Cabinet Secretary.”
