On Saturday, former Kiambu Governor, William Kabogo, offered crucial advice to incumbent counterpart, Ferdinand Waititu, after Waititu went into hiding following DCI orders to have him arrested on corruption charges.
DCI officers are trailing Waititu, who is reportedly on the run and had his phone switched off.
“My unsolicited advice. Find good Wakilis (lawyers). Athis juncture don’t imagine UK (Uhuru Kenyatta) will intervene in a corruption matter," Kabogo divulged.
Kabogo was responding to a story by an unnamed local media, who alleged that Waititu was frantically trying to reach the president.
He posted the screenshot on his Facebook page.
The former governor seemed to be enjoying the unfolding drama, as he has at a number of times traded jibes with Waititu over corruption allegations.
Earlier this year, he exposed how Waititu tried to drag his name into an outrageous Kiambu budget that shocked the country.
A report by Capital FM indicated that Waititu has not been at his homes in Kiambu and Nairobi since Friday night when an arrest warrant was issued against him.
The governor's wife, Susan Wangari Ndung'u, has also not been found.
Three other people who were being sought in connection with the disappearance of Ksh588 million from Kiambu county coffers were arrested on Saturday morning.
Haji wants Waititu to answer questions relating to the awarding of a tender for the upgrade of roads in Thika, Limuru, Gatundu North, Juja and Ruiru sub-counties.
The tender was awarded to Testimony Enterprise Limited.
Sleuths believe that the owners of the said company are close associates of the first-term governor.
According to the press release, a total of Ksh147,274,055.39 was irregularly paid to the firm.
