A recent High Court ruling by Lady Justice Mumbi Ngugi which directed that governors charged with economic crimes should not access their offices for the duration of their trial has raised queries on the running of the affected counties, as embattled Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu became the second victim of the ruling.

Anti-Corruption Court Magistrate Lawrence Mugambi Tuesday upheld Justice Ngugi’s decision, directing Mr Waititu to keep off from running Kiambu County’s affairs.
