The raid was conducted on his Runda and Garden Estate homes. Detectives searched his homes in Runda and Garden Estate for evidence that will assist in the inquiry about corruption in Kiambu County Government.
In Runda, the Kiambu county chief lives in a small ‘heaven’ on earth.

Kenyans on Twitter have however reacted, arguing that the house cannot be worth Ksh 37 million.
They argue that the house is above that amount, citing that a plot in Runda is worth more than that, questioning how can the house be worth the amount believed.

The third home is reportedly on Kiambu Road near Paradise Lost Resort and Park.
But still some Kenyans argue that Waititu has another house in Balozi, South B.
