The Ministry of Agriculture has warned Kenyans about a rise in fake social media accounts impersonating the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Authority (KALRO), which are actively defrauding the public. KALRO explicitly stated that it is not affiliated with nine such fraudulent accounts.

• KALRO confirmed being unaffiliated with nine specific social media accounts, including KALRO Livestock Farm and Kalro Farm Kenya, which are scamming citizens.
• The fraudulent accounts exploit KALRO's name and branding for impersonation and false representation.
• All legitimate payments to KALRO are exclusively processed through the government's E-Citizen platform (*222#).
• This warning follows a similar alert from the Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) regarding fraudsters offering fake job opportunities.
