Agriculture CS Mithika Linturi is embroiled in a fierce battle as allies shift alliances in a scandalous saga. Will he survive the storm? Find out!

Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi finds himself in the eye of the storm as a fertiliser scam controversy rocks the government. The embattled CS is facing an uphill battle, with MPs seemingly abandoning him in his time of need. The National Assembly recently approved a motion to impeach Linturi, signaling the tough road ahead for him. Despite the challenging circumstances, Linturi remains resolute in the face of adversity, fighting a lone battle to clear his name and reputation.

Amidst the political turmoil, Linturi's fate now rests in the hands of an 11-member committee tasked with investigating the allegations against him. The decision to form a select committee to probe the impeachment charges further intensifies the pressure on the Agriculture CS. Despite the odds stacked against him, Linturi continues to face the challenges head-on, determined to defend himself against the allegations and emerge victorious.

In a surprising turn of events, MPs aligned with Kenya Kwanza defied their leader Kimani Ichung'wah to support the formation of the investigative team, showcasing the complex dynamics at play in Linturi's impeachment bid. As the saga unfolds, all eyes are on the unfolding developments in the National Assembly, where the fate of the embattled CS will be decided.

In the high-stakes political drama surrounding Mithika Linturi, the battle for his survival intensifies as allies and adversaries maneuver for advantage. The outcome of the impeachment proceedings against the Agriculture CS will not only shape his political future but also have far-reaching implications for the government and the country at large.
