I understand that the constitution states clearly that a person is innocent until proven guilty, but am neither a judge nor a lawyer and I will state here that, once a person holding a public office has been mentioned in any criminal investigations, he is guilty until his name is cleared.

Governor Obado has been charged with the murder of his girlfriend Sharon Otieno and his unborn child.

According to Sharon’s postmortem report. She was gang raped before being stabbed eight times. Her unborn son was stabbed through the spine, and the knife exited through the baby’s stomach.

Now that’s a messy inhumane act. Obado might be innocent in the courts of law but he is guilty as fuck in the courts of Public Opinion and in the eyes of rightful thinking men.

First of all, dragging your family to a media conference to tell the world that you had an affair with a 26 year old university student is unethical. It makes it even worse when the girl who was pregnant with your baby is a victim of murder.

In the Luo culture, just like many other African cultures, killing is forbidden. Killing a helpless pregnant woman is unimaginable.

I was therefore surprised that the people of Migori could have the guts to celebrate the governor’s release. That’s is like spitting on Sharon’s grave.

According to media outlets, Migori town, Awendo and Uriri were all in jubilation mood after news that governor Obado had been released on a sh 5 million bail and two sureties of the same amount.

According to the governor’s director of communication Nicholas Anyuor, The county was celebrating because their governor was finally free. So the people were happy.

I don’t even understand why Anyuor, who is supposed to be an experienced Communication Officer should make such a misleading statement.

First of all Obado is not free, he has been released on bail pending the hearing and determination of his case. If found guilty, he may be looking at a very long time in prison.

Another county government employee was quoted as saying that Obado has undergone a lot of torment and they were praying for him, which to me is just being a political boot-licker.

Now back to the people who were celebrating, whom I understand most had been paid to do so. What happens if your daughter, or sister becomes the next Sharon Otieno?

Obado is not the first high profile person to be implicated in a murder case. And won’t be the last one especially if he gets to walk away from this.

I believe that the only reason Sharon was killed was because her killer knew they could get away with it.
