Bumula MP Jack Wamboka has asked Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi to resign following the influx of fake subsidised fertiliser in the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) depots.

Addressing the press in Bungoma town on Saturday, Wamboka said the issue of fake fertiliser is grave and should be addressed by MPs across the political divide.
