With Ruto. Again. To make matters worse, Obado is in Nairobi at a governors meeting of sorts. Na wanacheka na Ruto sana. Your President in Waiting…
Obado travelled hundreds of km against the silly judge’s ruling…
And they are meeting diplomats. And Obado is talking a whole lot at this meeting in Nairobi. 4 pillars of development. Hizo ndio pillars of development. Eeh mkae mkijua. Kuna wenye nchi, those above the law.
Not news. They were running in a marathon in Nyeri on Sunday wakiwa na mkora mwenzake Ruto after attending a series of political rallies in Migori earlier in the week together.
Thought it was only Homabay where he was not to go to or anywhere near Homabay. He can travel as long as its not outside the country or near or to Homabay
As usual majority of Kenyans already moved on… I once saw one mayai head in facebook post ati sasa wanasumbulia Obado nini? This was after the anti corruption guys raided his home
Fact is Ruto knows the sharon story will die out and that Obado is popular in migori. He was one of the few people to go against ODM and win. And remember, Ruto is gathering all the support he can get for 2022.
Obado on his part knows that with a powerful DP at his side, the court case can be influenced in his favour through behind the scene manouvers.
Its a match made in heaven.
Alikuwa hadi Nyeri?! Ni sawa basi. Hata hio ni maendeleo.
Gilbert Deya naye? I guess everything is forgiven in the era of handshake.
Jaque Marife naye amefichwa wing gani ya state house?
Korti na jela ni za idiots na poor people.
If you are both poor and illiterate, you better die young 'cause nothing will ever favour you in this world!
Okay. So haikuwa a detainment of sorts, ni detterent asikaribie Homa Bay? Basi hio ruling ilikuwa upus.
Me I understood he wasn’t to leave his county. He operates within. That judge lessit alichezea watu saikolojia.
Therefore the man is free as a bird?! Hata hio ni maendeleo pia.
It’s you who didn’t understand the bail terms.
He was barred from getting to within 20 kilometers of Homa Bay county and traveling out of the country NOT anywhere else in Kenya.
In KENYA

Boss don’t be too excited. Truman Capote amefafanua vizuri. Angalia comments. Mimi nilidhani ni kama ile ankle bracelet maneno ya America where your movements are restrained kumbe ni detterent tu asikaribie Homa bay.
So essentially he is as free as a bird?
But preventing him from approaching Homa Bay county is nonsense. Akitaka he can just call Mama Sharon na amwuulize, “Ati mlikuwa mnataka nini? Nyumba na nini ingine? Toyota fielder?”
Meanwhile…

The High Court has unfrozen one of the accounts believed to be a proxy used by Migori Governor Okoth Obado to siphon over Sh2 billion through manipulation of the county’s procurement system.
Anti-corruption court judge Hedwig Ong’udi ordered that an account operated by businessman Ernest Omondi be freed after nearly seven months of being iced.
Mr Omondi had filed an application seeking unfreezing of his Equity Bank, Migori branch, account which had Sh19 million balance when EACC detectives obtained freeze orders in December, last year.
SH2 BILLION
The businessman is among 10 individuals and companies believed to have made over Sh2 billion through Migori County tenders before wiring some proceeds back to Mr Obado and his family.
The alleged Obado proxies had separately filed applications seeking unfreezing of their bank accounts. Rulings on the other applications are still pending before Justice Ong’udi.

Other respondents in the suit are Jared Oluoch Kwaga, Joram Opala Otieno, Patroba Ochanda Otieno, Hellen Adhiambo Odie, Beatrice Akinyi Ogutu, Kennedy Odhiambo Akello, Janto Construction, Marowa Stores, and Mbingo Enterprises.
Despite its accounts being frozen, Janto Construction was awarded a road repair tender in March this year. County officials proceeded to release Sh16.8 million to the firm.
EACC detectives have unearthed 32 companies they say Mr Obado used as proxies for procurement, and 77 pieces of land and other assets that were bought using proceeds of the scheme.
Justice Ong’udi had in June ordered that the anti-graft watchdog increases the number of officers combing through bank accounts frozen to ensure speedy conclusion of the investigations.
Detectives say that through the procurement scam, Mr Obado was able to build a home worth Sh100 million and send Sh13 million to his children in Australia and Scotland.
The embattled governor sent Sh1.9 million to his daughter Susan at the University of Aberdeen in December 2014 through Mr Kwaga. In August 2016, Mr Obado sent Sh12.2 million to his son Dan Achola Okoth in Sydney, Australia, through Mr Opala.
Investigations into Migori County’s procurement processes began in September last year.

Pamela hapo sijaelewa. You mean he needs permission to be near Homa Bay or to travel anywhere at all?
