Ethics and Anti-Corruption detectives recorded a huge breakthrough yesterday in a bid to unearth the theft of sh 791 million from the National Youth Service (NYS), in which former Dev0lution Cabinet Secretary, Miss Anne Waiguru, and Principal Secretary Peter Mangiti are prime suspects.
This is after they discovered 4 millions shillings in cash allegedly looted from NYS stashed in Mangiti’s house and more millions under Waiguru’s mattress as they raided her home and those of Mangiti and 11 other top NYS officials.
It is not clear how much exactly was discovered at Waiguru’s house but a source intimated to the media that the cash was running into several millions, something that raises more questions than answers.
The source noted that Waiguru chose to keep the loot in her house and under her bed after the scandal at NYS blew up to avoid raising suspicions as well as to have some cash at her disposal should the Government decide to freeze her bank accounts.
The search at Waiguru’s home that took over 7 hours also led to the discovery of some crucial documents that will help in the ongoing investigations especially how she acquire a house worth Sh. 150 million with her salary in less than 2 years of service.
Waiguru is said to have been present during the raid with her lawyer, Ahmednassir Abdullahi, and her entire family.
