This came shortly after the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) launched a manhunt for the governor. 

According to a report by KTN News, Waitutu together with 6 other officials are being sought in an Sh588 million graft case.

A section of the netizens claimed the governor had disappeared in order to avoid spending a night in jail as no court sessions can take place on a weekend. Others argued that Waititu had gone missing in order to build his defence before he presents himself to the DCI on Monday. 

The DCI has so far arrested 3 suspects in connection with the mega graft case. Waititu and his family have been ordered to surrender.
