Okoth Obado the suspect in Sharon Otieno murder case and also Migori county chief has been in the headlines for all the shameful reasons and continues to hold record after it emerged that he collaborated with a high court judge to to twist justice in return for some sweet blessings.
President Uhuru has been told to act fast and form a tribunal that will see Supreme Court Judge Jackton Ojwang kicked out for gross misconduct.
The judge’s dirty deals in the business of corruption have been traced from a good road to his private home with full street lighting that he exchanged for a favorable ruling to the governor.
I promised you pics: Justice Ojwang’ is currently putting up what’s the biggest shopping complex in Migori(at Cham Kombe).
Obado blessed him with a good road to his private home with full street lighting.

JSC wants Justice Ojwang probed and possibly removed for alleged gross misconduct, abuse of office and corruption.
Adding salt to the injury ,despite being served with a notice to appear before the committee appointed to probe the matter led by Chief Justice David Maraga, the judge refused .
The judge faced two charges and the JSC insists that he appear in person before it as the matters are only within his knowledge.
“The petition detailed instances which the petitioners believed constituted grounds of misconduct, impropriety, conflict of interest and breach of the judicial code of conduct on the part of the judge,” the JSC said in a
statement.
It noted that Justice Ojwang sat with other judges of the Supreme Court in hearing the matter “…despite being conflicted and closely associated with Migori County and Governor Okoth Obado”.
