Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu's son, Brian Ndung'u, was on Monday charged with driving under the influence of alcohol at the Milimani Law Courts.

Ndung'u was arrested in the wee hours of Monday morning, March 15, 2021, while drink-driving a Toyota Probox on Muindi Mbingu Street in Nairobi County.

Police said that at the time of the arrest, Ndung'u was so inebriated that he was incapable of controlling the vehicle.

He pleaded guilty before Nairobi Senior Principal Magistrate Esther Kimilu and pleaded for leniency, telling the court that he will not repeat the offense again.

The court ordered him freed but slapped him with a Sh30,000 fine or serve three months in jail.

At the time of going to press, the 25-year-old Strathmore University law student had not paid the fine, confiding in a security agent that he only had Sh10,000 in his pockets.

The young law student told a K24 Digital reporter that he won't seek his parent's assistance to bail him out, promising to solve the issue as an adult.
