NAIROBI, Kenya, Nov 2 – Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu has been fined KSh21 million following his conviction in a money laundering case, with the court imposing a total of 13 years in alternative prison sentences should he fail to pay the fines.
However, the prison terms are to run concurrently, meaning Waititu will serve five years in jail rather than 13 years if he defaults on the fines.
The KSh21 million fine was imposed across three counts, with Waititu ordered to pay KSh10 million on Count 10, KSh6 million on Count 11 and KSh5 million on Count 12.
