Sly Marikiti Brokers
For several weeks last year, a team of the Nation Media Group's Specials and Investigations unit went out on an experiential assignment, to track the flow of fresh food produce from the farm to the market and to document the intricate details in between. Details that include the harsh business environment that farmers are subjected to, leading them to meagre earnings from their produce that are otherwise sold at a premium to the consumers. In between are dynamics that include brokers or middle men and other factors affecting business in fresh markets such as Marikiti here in Nairobi.

Sweet but deadly Tharaka Nithi honey || 12 minutes
At least 13 people have died after consuming wild honey locally known as Nchuura in Tharaka Nithi county in the last two years. Since 2019, Tharaka North constituency hits headlines as people die and scores hospitalized following the same. Nchuura is not made by common bees but by a species of smaller ones locally known as tuchuura, which do not sting and mainly live in hollow tress or abandoned burrows in the ground. Locals believe that the honey which is eaten raw, is medicinal and it is highly sought after, especially by pastoralists. The locals say Nchuura is sweeter than the normal honey and they cannot resist its sweetness despite it being deadly.
