Sirisia Member of Parliament John Waluke is headed to jail to serve the 67-year prison term slapped on him after the High Court declined to set aside his conviction in one of the most dramatic corruption cases in the country’s history.

Justice Esther Maina dismissed the appeal lodged by Mr Waluke and his business associate, Ms Grace Wakhungu, against their conviction and sentencing over the Sh297 million maize scandal.
