Waiguru, a former Devolution CS, wants the court to declare, as null and void, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) report on the multi-billion shilling National Youth Service (NYS) scandal. Through lawyer Mansur Issa, Waiguru argued the recommendation was reached on the basis of uncorroborated and false evidence by an affidavit by one of the key suspects, Josephine Kabura. "PAC relied on uncorroborated, contradictory and false evidence of Josephine Kabura in her affidavit of February 23, 2016.
