What else did Junet tell Mwihia?

The MP, a member of Parliament’s Committee on Appointments, wanted Mwihia to explain how he planned to address the high levels of corruption in the agricultural sector.

Junet also warned the nominee that the sector is filled with cartels, and if he is not careful, he could end up jobless within a year.

“Having a PhD and dealing with corruption are two different things, and that’s one thing I want him to illustrate, even physically if he can, how he’s going to deal with corrupt people in that place. If you can prove that for me, I’ll be satisfied because I know after one year you’ll be walking jobless in the streets, I can assure you,” Junet said.

The MP observed that these individuals, known as ‘cartels’ within government circles, have consistently escaped accountability for their crimes, leaving the Agriculture ministers to take the blame.

He lamented that the Agriculture sector is plagued by scandals, citing former Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi, who was involved in the fake fertilizer scandal but managed to avoid impeachment.

Linturi was eventually dismissed months later when the president replaced nearly his entire Cabinet.
