Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu, his wife Sarah Wangare and their co-accused will remain in custody after the High Court upheld their convictions in a 588-million-shilling corruption case. The Anti-Corruption Court is set to issue directions on mitigation and sentencing on October 22, 2026. The court has also denied Susan Waititu bail, ordering her to remain at Lang’ata Women’s Prison. Meanwhile, the prosecution is seeking orders to compel the third accused, Charles Ngugi, to appear in court.
