Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi came under fire after the Senate Agriculture Committee accused him of trying to direct them in the way they should do their work in the probe on the fake fertiliser scandal.

Linturi had sought to know whether the committee chaired by Kirinyaga Senator Kamau Murango will be asking him similar questions to those he faced when he appeared before the National Assembly Agriculture Committee on Monday.
