Security teams from the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) and the General Service Unit's 'Flying Squad' stormed a private warehouse within the town where the fertiliser was being repackaged. He said a whistle-blower noticed the repackaging from NCPB branded bags to those of Chapa Meli Fertiliser and tipped the board. The crackdown impounded 2,515 bags branded NCPB and another 990 bags of already-repackaged fertiliser. The prime suspect had been hired to move the fertiliser to Kitale for distribution to maize farmers.
