Nominated Member of Parliament, Maina Kamanda, delivered an insurmountable revelation on how the former Kiambu Governor, Ferdinand Waititu, failed to pay him Ksh 1 million that he owed him.

The lawmaker charred the reputation of the former county boss, recalling how he had warned Kiambu residents not to vote in Waititu in 2017. He further stated that he had warned Nairobi residents not to elect the impeached Nairobi governor Sonko.

Kamanda got everybody to agree by stating that Waititu approached him during the campaign period, requesting the whopping amount.

Kamanda complained that after Waititu's victory, the former county boss allegedly used proceeds from corruption to amass exclusive properties for himself.

"During the campaigns, that man used to come to me to borrow Ksh1 million, promising he will return it. Even stealing needs intelligence. This man did not have even a little intelligence," he lamented

The Legislature also thanked the county MCAs for initiating impeachment proceedings against Waititu.

"I want to thank the MCAs of Kiambu. You are great, you are like Maina Kamanda. I've met you, especially the group of ten people. We've drunk a lot of tea with that group while planning," Kamanda recalled.
