Agriculture CS Mithika Linturi has distanced himself from the sentiments of Trade CS Moses Kuria in maize importation.
Linturi has said he is the custodian of how much food we need and how much is the deficit.
"So I will not answer to what is being reported in the social media," he said.
"Hold your horses because I want to give you a position that I am ready to defend. I need to have statistics before I can answer that."
"I Will give a more comprehensive report on the national food status at a later date when I have all the data. Relax, you will have food," Linturi said.
