The ministry of agriculture and national treasury are on the spot for allowing blacklisted companies import excess amounts of contaminated sugar in the country. Agriculture cabinet secretary Mwangi Kiunjuri and his treasury counterpart Henry Rotich were at pains explaining to MPs why sugar barons were given free hand to flood the Kenyan market with sugar between May and September last year. The joint committees of trade and agriculture had to turn back the two cabinet secretaries after they failed to satisfactorily explain the safety of the sugar in Kenyan market.
