Former Kimani Governor Ferdinand Waititu has been hit with fresh charges while behind bars.
The former Governor had been found guilty of corruption case and was convicted to 12 years in prison or pay Ksh53 million.
Waititu was again charged over remarks he allegedly made in Ruiru Stadium in Kiambu County on September 29 2024.
According to prosecutors, the former county boss’s comments during a public event were deliberately provocative and had the potential to shake the peace in the country.
In the alleged speech, Waititu condemned impeachment proceedings against former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua by suggesting that ‘if Gachagua goes home, President Ruto must also go’.
The case has reportedly been scheduled for hearing next week.
