One family was paid almost half a billion in the NCPB scam

Paul Kipyegon Marus at his Tuigoin farm in Trans Nzoia inspects his large tract of land and some of the bags that are still in his stores in an attempt to prove that he cultivated and sold his own maize. He wants the state to strike out his name from the list.

?Two sisters and a brother took home the bulk of the controversial National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) payments, an audit report from the Ministry of Agriculture shows.

In the report in the possession of the Saturday Standard, the three had delivered maize worth Sh637 million to the NCPB depots in Eldoret and Kisumu and had already been paid Sh431 milllion.
