  • ‪High Court Grants Waititu A Sh20 Million Cash Bail‬

    ‪High Court Grants Waititu A Sh20 Million Cash Bail‬

    Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu has received a partial reprieve after the High Court varied his bail conditions, reducing the amount to Sh20 million pending the determination of his appeal.

    The ruling, delivered on Wednesday by Justice Winfrida Okwany, allows Waititu to be released on Sh20 million cash or on two sureties with property each valued at not less than Sh30 million.

    The proposed properties will be verified and approved by the court’s Deputy Registrar.

    Waititu’s lawyers told the court that their client had faced difficulties in securing the bank guarantee previously ordered as part of his bail.

    They argued that more than seven months have passed since the original ruling, and the former county boss has consistently attended court hearings, showing he is not a flight risk.

    “The key consideration should be whether Mr Waititu has complied with court appearances and whether the bail conditions remain reasonable under the circumstances,” the defence submitted.

    The State opposed the application. Counsel Mwamburi, representing the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), argued that Waititu had not met the legal requirements for a review of the original bail terms.

    Mwamburi noted that submissions in the case are set for later this month and that the defence had not presented any new or compelling reasons to justify altering the existing conditions.

    The prosecution also questioned the fluctuating nature of the bail request, pointing out that the proposed amount was initially included, later withdrawn, and then reintroduced in the review application. “This change does not meet the threshold for review,” Mwamburi said.

    As part of the revised bail terms, Waititu has been ordered to deposit his passport with the court until the appeal process is concluded.

  • Blow to Waititu as Court Dismisses Bid to Review 12-Year Sentence

    Blow to Waititu as Court Dismisses Bid to Review 12-Year Sentence

    Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu has suffered a major legal setback after the High Court dismissed his application to review the 12-year prison term imposed on him earlier this year.

    In a ruling delivered on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, Lady Justice Lucy Njuguna upheld the sentence, rejecting an application filed on August 28 in which Waititu sought to have the punishment overturned.

    Waititu, who was convicted in February 2025 on corruption-related charges, was ordered to either pay a fine of Sh53.5 million or serve 12 years in jail.

    The court found him guilty of irregularly receiving Sh25 million from Testimony Enterprises following the award of a flawed county tender.

    Justice Njuguna said the sentence would stand pending the determination of Waititu’s appeal, which must be heard and concluded within 120 days.

    She cautioned that unnecessary delays by the former governor or his legal team could result in the case being struck out.

    “The applicant must proceed with his appeal expeditiously. The court will not entertain attempts to frustrate the conclusion of this matter,” the judge ruled.

    Waititu is currently serving his term at Kamiti Maximum Prison, having failed to meet stringent bond conditions that required him to deposit a Sh53 million bank guarantee.

    The case will be mentioned on October 1, 2025, as the court sets timelines for the hearing of the appeal.

    The ruling is seen as a significant win for the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), which has been under pressure to secure convictions in high-profile corruption cases.

  • Waititu’s Farmers Party Announces Exit From Kenya Kwanza

    Waititu’s Farmers Party Announces Exit From Kenya Kwanza

    Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu’s Farmers Party has formally notified the Kenya Kwanza Coalition of its intention to withdraw from the coalition within the next 30 days.

    In a letter addressed to Kenya Kwanza’s Coalition Secretariat on Tuesday, the party’s Secretary General, Simon Kamangu said the notice to exit followed a green light by its National Executive Committee to pull out from the ruling coalition.

    The notice to leave takes effect today (Tuesday) and aligns to the Coalition Agreement which they signed on 23rd March 2022.

    “Accordingly, the National Executive Committee of the Farmers Party met on 7th April 2025 and unanimously resolved on the subject matter. Therefore, Farmers Party hereby issues a thirty (30) day notice of intention to exit the Kenya Kwanza Coalition, pursuant to Clause 8 (Termination) of the Coalition Agreement,” he said.

    In the letter, Kamangu cited dishonesty, political infidelity, and outright disregard for both the Constitution of Kenya (2010) and the spirit of our Coalition Agreement as reasons to exit Kenya Kwanza.

    “Our belief in the binding commitments of the Coalition’s manifesto guided our participation. However,  it is with deep regret that we note a consistent pattern of dishonesty, political infidelity, and outright disregard for both the Constitution of Kenya (2010) and the spirit of our Coalition Agreement,” he said.

    Other reasons include; signing of a Broad-Based Government Agreement between the Kenya Kwanza Coalition and the ODM Party — without consultation or involvement of the Kenya Kwanza constituent parties.

    “This move not only violates the trust upon which our coalition was founded, but also undermines the principles of inclusivity, transparency, and mutual respect,” he added.

    This announcement comes shortly after former Farmers Party leader Irungu Nyakera was dismissed by President Ruto from his role as board chair of the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC). He was replaced by Samuel Waweru Mwangi.

    The Farmers Party leadership changed hands in February, with the Registrar of Political Parties confirming that Ferdinand Waititu had taken over from Irungu Nyakera.

  • EACC Moves To Seize Waititu’s Assets Valued Over Sh1.6 Billion

    EACC Moves To Seize Waititu’s Assets Valued Over Sh1.6 Billion

    The legal woes of former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu have deepened as the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) seeks to seize assets worth Ksh 1.9 billion, which the ex-governor is unable to account for.

    The anti-graft body is also awaiting approval from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to bring fresh charges against Waititu over fraudulent tenders amounting to Ksh 50 million.

    Waititu, who served as Kiambu Governor between 2017 and 2020, risks losing a vast portfolio of properties, including three multi-storey buildings in Nairobi’s Central Business District, a luxurious maisonette in Runda Grove valued at Ksh 96 million, and several other high-value properties in Lucky Summer and Migaa.

    The EACC alleges that these assets were acquired through corrupt dealings during his tenure as Kabete MP and later as Kiambu Governor.

    According to the EACC, Waititu amassed his wealth through kickbacks from lucrative tenders, with bank deposits totaling over Ksh 800 million traced to him during this period.

    The commission has filed an application to freeze the assets to prevent their disposal before seizure. Among the properties listed are the Jamii Bora building on Koinange Street (Ksh 200 million), Delta Hotel on University Way (Ksh 380 million), and Biashara Shopping Mall (Ksh 110 million).

    The anti-graft agency further claims that Waititu orchestrated his illicit wealth through a network that included his wife, Susan Wangari, and several companies linked to the family.

    The EACC is seeking to recover Ksh 928.8 million from Waititu and Ksh 282.9 million from his wife.

    Companies under scrutiny include Saika Two Estate Developers, Bienvenue Delta Hotel, and Bins Management Services Ltd, which are alleged to have received illicit funds.

    In one of the most damning allegations, the EACC accuses Waititu of using a forged introductory letter from China Wu Yi to fraudulently secure a roads contract worth Ksh 588 million in Kiambu County. A witness from China Wu Yi has since testified that the company’s letterhead was forged.

    Last Thursday, the Milimani Anti-Corruption Court sentenced Waititu to 12 years in prison or a fine of Ksh 53 million for corruption-related offenses linked to the Ksh 588 million roads tender.

    His wife, Susan Wangari, was sentenced to one year in prison or a fine of Ksh 500,000 for dealing with suspect property.

    Other individuals convicted in the case include former Chief Officer for Roads Luka Wahinya, who was sentenced to seven years in prison or a fine of Ksh 21 million, and Charles Chege, the director of Testimony Enterprises Ltd, who received an 11-year sentence or a fine of Ksh 297 million.

    In accordance with the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Act, all convicted individuals have been barred from holding public office for 10 years.

    Waititu becomes the second former governor to be convicted of corruption after former Samburu Governor Moses Lenolkulal.

    The EACC has taken nine former governors to court, with seven of them facing active cases, including Evans Kidero (Nairobi), Mike Sonko (Nairobi), Okoth Obado (Migori), Sospeter Ojaamong (Busia), and Mwangi wa Iria (Murang’a).

    The commission’s investigations revealed that Waititu’s wealth, frozen by the courts since 2022, was accumulated through irregular tenders, with kickbacks channeled through companies registered under his wife’s and daughter’s names.

    In a separate case involving Ksh 50 million, the EACC has forwarded evidence to the DPP, who has recommended additional charges against Waititu.

    The former governor’s downfall marks a significant milestone in Kenya’s fight against corruption, as authorities continue to tighten the noose on graft within county governments.

    The EACC’s relentless pursuit of Waititu and other high-profile figures signals a renewed commitment to accountability and transparency in public office.

    As the legal battles unfold, Kenyans are watching closely, hopeful that the crackdown on corruption will restore public trust in governance and pave the way for a more equitable future.

  • Ferdinand Waititu Jailed For Twelve Years

    Ferdinand Waititu Jailed For Twelve Years

    Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu has been ordered to pay a mandatory Sh53.5 million fine or spend 12 years in prison after being found guilty of corruption-related charges.

    His wife, Susan Wangari, has been handed a one-year jail term and Sh500,000 fine in the graft case.

    The other convicts in this case namely Luka Mwangi Wahinya (former Kiambu Chief Officer, Roads, Transport, Public Works and Utilities) will also serve 2 years in prison or pay a fine of 1 million shillings alongside a mandatory fine of Ksh.20 million or serve 5 years in prison in default.

    Also, the Directors of Testimony Enterprises Limited namely Charles Chege Mbuthia and Beth Wangeci were jailed for 4 years if they fail to pay a fine of Ksh.2 million shillings plus a mandatory fine of Ksh.294 million.

    This is after the Director of Public Prosecutions successfully proved to court that the ex-county boss and his co-accused were guilty of conflict of interest, abuse of office, engaging in fraudulent practices in procurement, fraudulent acquisition of public property and dealing with suspected property.

    Chief Magistrate Thomas Nzyoki also directed that Waititu and his co accused not be appointed or hold any public office for a period of 10 years.

  • Ferdinand Waititu, Wife To Spend Night In Custody Ahead Of Sentencing

    Ferdinand Waititu, Wife To Spend Night In Custody Ahead Of Sentencing

    Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu, his wife Susan Wangari, and two others have been detained until tomorrow when they will be sentenced in the graft case.

    Waititu, alias Baba Yao, was on Wednesday found guilty of corruption alongside his wife, Susan, and two others in a Sh. 588 million graft case.

    Waititu, his wife, and two former county government officials were charged with fraud, conflict of interest, dealing with suspect property, money laundering, and abuse of office. The charges stem from the fraudulent awarding of tenders to a company owned by his family.

    In his judgment, Chief Magistrate Thomas Nzyoki stated that the money trail directly linked Waititu, his wife, and Testimony Enterprises Limited. He further emphasized that the evidence presented by the prosecution was overwhelming.

    The court also found that Testimony Enterprises Limited secured the tender using forged academic documents and manipulation by Engineer Luca, the third accused person.

    Additionally, the court ruled that Governor Waititu had violated his oath of office by benefiting from proceeds of crime, which were funneled to his company in direct violation of the law.

    “The defense by the governor lacked merit and was self-incriminating, as he could not explain how his company won the tender,” the court ruled.

    Waititu was found guilty of conflict of interest for acquiring an indirect personal interest amounting to over Sh. 25,624,500 from Testimony Enterprises Limited.

    The funds were channeled through his company and business name during his tenure as governor.

    The court dismissed Waititu’s defense that the case was a political witch-hunt, with the trial magistrate stressing that “numbers and figures don’t lie.”

    The court ruled that the prosecution had sufficiently proven the charges, describing the case as a classic example of conflict of interest.

    It further highlighted that the prosecution’s evidence was “sound and overwhelming,” pointing to the movement of funds in Equity Bank accounts linked to the former governor and his wife.

    Additionally, the court declared the roads tender in question fraudulent, citing a lack of necessary documentation and the company’s inability to execute the road project.

    “I have no doubt in my mind that the contract is a fraud… It is a mockery of the law,” the court ruled.

    The court also revealed that the tender evaluation committee removed two key criteria, violating the Constitution.

    If not successfully appealed, this conviction could bar Waititu from holding any public office. This would further complicate his already uncertain political future, as his impeachment had already disqualified him from vying for any political position for 10 years.

    Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu and Wife Found Guilty in Sh588 Million Graft Case

    Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu and his wife, Susan Wangari, have been found guilty in a Sh588 million graft case that began five years ago.

    In a ruling delivered on the morning of Wednesday, February 12, Milimani Anti-Corruption Court Chief Magistrate Thomas Nzioki found Waititu guilty on four counts in the Ksh588 million corruption case.

    “In count one, the first accused person (Waititu) is found guilty. In count two, the first accused person and Saika Two Estate Developers Limited are found guilty. In count three, the first accused person and Saika Developers Limited are found guilty,” stated the judge.

    On count four, the former governor, his wife (the second co-accused), and Bienvenue Delta Hotel were also found guilty.

    Judge Nzioki further found the third accused person guilty on count five, while Charles Chege Mbuthia, the fifth and eleventh accused persons, were found guilty on count seven.

    “In count eight, the fourth and eleventh accused persons are found guilty. In count nine, the fourth, fifth, and eleventh accused persons are found guilty,” the judge added.

    The ruling followed Magistrate Nzioki’s determination that the accused had a case to answer.

    Waititu, Susan Wangari Ndungu (his wife), Luka Mwangi Wahinya (former transport manager), Charles Chege Mbuthia, Beth Wangeci Mburu, Testimony Enterprises Limited, Saika Two Estate Developers Limited, and Bienvenue Delta Hotel were charged with the irregular awarding of Ksh588 million road tenders in Kiambu County in February 2018.

    The accused were found to have a case to answer after 32 prosecution witnesses testified and 129 exhibits were presented.

    Ferdinand Waititu and his co-accused faced separate charges, including conflict of interest, abuse of office, engaging in fraudulent practices in procurement, fraudulent acquisition of public property, and money laundering.

  • No Escape, Court Rules Against Waititu In Corruption Case

    No Escape, Court Rules Against Waititu In Corruption Case

    Nairobi Anti-Corruption Court has, today, ruled that former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu Baba Yao and his wife Susan Wangari Ndung’u have a case to answer in relation to a Kes.588 million fraudulent tender.

    Among those charged alongside the Waititus is the Director of Testimony Enterprises Limited, the company at the centre of the scandal, Charles Chege together with his wife Beth Wangeci.

    Chief Magistrate Timothy Nzioki said that the prosecution had established a prima facie case against the accused persons and accordingly put them on their defence.

    EACC arrested and arraigned the accused persons in July 2019 after the DPP concurred that they be charged with five (5) offences namely conflict of Interest, dealing with suspect property, abuse of office, money laundering, engaging in fraudulent procurement practice and willful failure to comply with procurement laws and regulations.

    The accused will defend themselves before the court from 18th-21st March 2024 after which the Court will deliver its Judgement.

    The Waititu ruling comes 2 months after the Anti-Corruption Court similarly found former Samburu Governor Moses Lenolkulal with a case to answer in a graft case involving Kes. 84.7 million.

    Investigations established that Lenolkulal traded with Samburu County Government in the name of Oryx Service Station, which he owns, by supplying fuel worth over Kes. 84 Million. He was charged with abuse of office, conflict of interest and unlawful acquisition of public property.

    Besides the criminal cases facing the two, EACC has active civil suits in court seeking recovery of suspected stolen public funds from both Waititu and Lenolkulal. The High Court has since issued orders freezing Waititu’s unexplained wealth valued at Kes.1.9 billion.

    Other former and sitting Governors with active graft cases in court include Daniel Waithaka (Nyandarua), Okoth Obado (Migori), Evans Kidero (Nairobi), Mike Mbuvi Sonko (Nairobi), Sospeter Ojaamong (Busia), Mwangi Wa Iria (Murang’a) and Onesmus Muthomi Njuki (Tharaka Nithi).

    Relatedly, 21 others are under active investigations for alleged theft of billions of public funds while files involving 4 are under consideration by ODPP.

  • Waititu Risks Losing Sh52M Deposit In Botched Property Buying Deal

    Waititu Risks Losing Sh52M Deposit In Botched Property Buying Deal

    Former Kiambu governor Ferdinand Waititu risks losing Sh52 million deposit he paid to acquire an office block in Nairobi’s city centre after he failed to complete purchase of the Sh520 million property.

    The seller of the property, General Properties Limited, wants the High Court to endorse its decision to withhold Waititu’s money and to terminate the sale agreement dated May 30, 2018.

    The company received the money as 10 percent deposit for the purchase of as Solar House.

    But Mr Waititu was unable to conclude payment of the balance of Sh468 million within 90 days as stated in the sale agreement.

    Mr Waititu transacted using his company, Saika Two Estate Developers Limited, where he is a director and he was also furnished with the actual rent receivable from the office block.

    “It was a term of the agreement that upon default by Saika, the General Properties Ltd had the right to rescind the agreement and forfeit the 10 percent deposit as liquated damages for breach,” says the real estate firm’s director Charles Muhia.

    However, the seller’s decision to rescind the deal and retain the Sh52 million was contested by Mr Waititu’s company that threatened legal action.

    According to court papers, Saika also lodged a caution against the property in an attempt to compel the seller to refund the Sh52 million. General Properties says the sale agreement was approved by Mr Waititu’s advocates who also advised him to execute it.

    “It was a condition of the agreement that time was of essence and that the balance of Sh468 million was to be paid to the vendor advocates within 90 days from May 30, 2018. The defendant (Saika) has blatantly breached the conditions in the agreement,” says the real estate firm.

    It adds that Saika breached the contract by entering into a sale agreement without sufficient funds to complete the transaction and failing to complete the payment even after extension of the completion period.

    “Saika proceeded to execute the sale agreement and paid the deposit without first securing bank financing,” says the seller.

  • Here Is Exactly Why Kiambu Governor Waititu Was Impeached

    Here Is Exactly Why Kiambu Governor Waititu Was Impeached

    Embattled Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu was impeached late Thursday evening after 63 Members of the Kiambu County Assembly voted in favour of his removal motion tabled by Ndenderu MCA Solomon Kinuthia.

    The county lawmakers ousted the man over charges of conflict of interest for using his proxy companies to trade with the county and failure to comply with procurement regulations, he was further accused of abuse of office, gross violation of the Constitution, County Government Act, Public Procurement and Disposal Act, the Public Finance Management Act and finally gross misconduct.

    Conflict Of Interest

    The governor is currently facing a Sh588 million graft charge on irregular procurement of a tender awarded to a company in the county. Waititu and his wife allegedly received Sh51.2 million for the county awarding a tender worth Sh588 million irregularly to M/s Testimony Enterprises Ltd.

    On countless occasions, the house heard that the governor influenced the award of lucrative tenders to companies associated with immediate family and close relatives.

    MCA Gideon Gachara supported the removal motion citing payments to five companies linked to the governor’s family at the expense of other contractors.

    Abuse Of Office

    During the motion, Kinuthia said the governor has failed to account for county resources and therein caused unsustainable debts as well as pending bills of Sh4 billion. “These pending obligations were never disclosed in the county fiscal strategy paper 2018. The governor failed to implement the medium term debt management strategy for the financial year 2018-2019 placing the county in precarious financial position,” the MCA said.

    Using his power as governor, Waititu was accused of grabbing land in the county repeatedly including one belonging to Cecilia Njoki, a widow in Thika. “The matter was concluded by the ombudsman after its findings of fact implicate the governor in impeachable conduct,” Kinuthia said.

    The ward representatives further accused Waititu of disregarded the county assembly as an arm of the county government by diverting funds intended for use by the assembly to projects where he would obtain personal benefits

    The fate of the Kiambu Governor now entirely lies in the hands of the Senate.

  • It’s The End Of The Road For Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu

    It’s The End Of The Road For Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu

    Things are escalating from bad to worse for Kiambu Governor
    Ferdinand Waititu, who, if everything goes as it is now, might be forced out of office.

    Waititu, who’s whereabouts is currently unknown, has vanished together with his family after DPP Haji ordered for their immediate arrest and arraigned in court on several corruption and fraud charges.

    Haji’s orders followed Thursday’s ruling by Justice Mumbi Ngugi who ruled that Governors charged with corruption should stay away from office and their roles and duties be discharged by their deputies until their innocence is proven.

    The war on corruption seem to have been taken seriously and the Judiciary, which had been complaining of case interference from Executive and other arms of government, given chance to prove their prowess and independence to clean the country’s biggest mess.

    DPP Haji on Friday stated that Waititu and other corrupt county officials will face charges of irregular award of tenders worth Sh588 million and embezzlement of public funds.

    Amongst those of DPP’s radar with their arrest warrant out already include Governor Waititu’s wife Susan Wangari Ndung’u, director Bienvenue Delta Hotel, Lucas Wahinya the Chief Officer roads of Kiambu County and evaluation committee members Zakary Mbugua, Joyce Musyoka, Simon Kang’ethe, Anselm Wanjiku and Samuel Mugo.

    The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has been investigating allegations of irregular procurement of a tender for the upgrading of various gravel roads to bituminous surface in the county,

    According to EACC investigations, Waititu and his accomplices awarded M/s Testimony Enterprises Ltd irregular tenders worth Sh588 million 2017/2018 financial year.

    EACC alleges that the directors of M/s Testimony Enterprises, who have already pocketed 147.3million, are close associates of the Governor Waititu and his family.

    “I find that the award of the contract for Ksh.588,198,328.20 in respect to tender No.CGK/RTPW&U/142/2017-2018- for the upgrading of various gravel roads to Bitumen surface in Thika, Limuru, Gatundu North, Juja and Ruiru sub-counties was skewed in favour of M/s Testimony Enterprises Ltd, and the county government officials were culpable,” reads part of DPP’s statement.

    “The directors of M/s Testimony Enterprises Ltd were close associates of Ferdinand Ndung’u Waititu Babayao, the Governor of Kiambu County. The total amount of Ksh.147,274,055.39 have so far been irregularly paid to Testimony Enterprises Ltd in relation to the subject tender,” DPP adds.

    DPP Haji stated that he has independently reviewed the evidence in the inquiry file and the report and he’s satisfied that there is ‘more than sufficient evidence’ to sustain charges against Waititu and the other named suspects.

    DPP and EACC are set to charge Waititu, his family and co-accused with conflict of interest, abuse of office, wilful failure to comply with the law on procurement, engaging in fraudulent practices, fraudulent acquisition of property, and money laundering.

    DPP’s arrest orders comes at a time when Mr Waititu had filed an application at the high court seeking to bar his arrest and possible prosecution.

    Waititu is also on EACC’s radar over alleged questionable expenditure for, among other things, the controversial Kaa Sober programme that was valued at 2million daily contrary to the Public Finance Management Act.

    Waititu, just as any other corrupt leader, apparently majority of them are allied to Tangatanga movement, tenure is inevitably hitting the dead end.

    The Judiciary wants to prove a point and unluckily, Tangatanga folks are on the frying pan after allegedly frying wananchi.

    Chief Justice Maraga has also added his weight and Waititu just as his tangatanga corrupt folks are, without doubt, going to feel his wrath.

    Early July, Chief Justice Maraga suspended Kiambu Principal Magistrate Bryan Khaemba, who had given Governor Ferdinand Waititu an anticipatory bail while on his sick leave.

    According to a suspension letter from Chief Justice David Maraga, Khaemba won’t be paid or report at his place of work because his orders breached Rules 3 and 12 of the Judicial Service Code of Conduct and Ethics.

    Chief Justice David Maraga stated In the letter dated June 13 that Khaemba’s actions amount to gross misconduct contrary to the Human Resource Policies and Procedures Manual.

    “He sneaked to the court and made the ruling on Waititu’s matter MISC. CR APP. No 222 of 2019 yet it had not been allocated or listed to him.” CJ Maraga stated.

    “In view of the above, you (Khaemba) are hereby required to show cause why disciplinary action should not be taken against you for the offence,” reads part of CJ Maraga’s letter.

    I don’t know how Tangatanga members chose themselves but the entire team from their leader DP Ruto, to the lowest ranks such as personal guards, drivers and even social media influencers are directly or indirectly involved in a fraud, corrupt, civil and legal charges or battle.

    Just the day, Another Tangatanga allied member- former CS Henry Rotich was forced out of the President Uhuru’s administration because of a multi-billion dams fraud.

    Early this year, Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro, an ardent supporter of the DP, alleged that the Government was planning to use the Police and KRA to frustrate those allied to Team Tangatanga. I wonder why and what is he doing that’s against the law?

    Kandara MP Alice Wahome told media that the State has revived her 2012 civil suit and the DCI ‘given’ a go ahead to prosecute her in a matter she stated it has nothing to do with nor under jurisdiction of theDCI.

    I don’t know why team Tangatanga believes that all leaders supporting the DP are being targeted by the State, funny enough, in which they are part and parcel of.

    According to them the system has changed tack and is targeting the Dr Ruto’s supporters in what they foolishly believe it’s plans to depict Ruto as a failed and corrupt politician. Well isn’t he?

    And just on more thing, supporting William Ruto’s political ambition is not, according to the laws governing our country, illegal and does not necessarily mean you’re corrupt.

    So for those saying they’re being attacked rather targeted by State entities should tell us what else are they doing apart from just ‘supporting’ the Hustler who lives in and almost owns the entire Nairobi.

    As for Babayao, how he gets out of this murk is only a matter of watch and see and if DPP’s recent assertions is anything to go by, he’s stuck and fixed. Who’s the Deputy Governor for Kiambu? That’s the man now to watch.
