Migori governor Okoth Obado is set to be a guest of the state for atleast one more night as his request for bail fell on deaf ears this morning.
Obado denied the murder of his pregnant girlfriend Sharon Otieno in Homa Bay.Mr Obado denied the charge when he appeared before the High Court in Milimani, Nairobi, on Monday morning.
He was sent to the Industrial Area station after his lawyers lost a bid to have him detained at the Gigiri Police Station.The governor will be held pending hearing of his bond request, which will be argued on Tuesday at 2pm.
The move was hailed by most Kenyans who were also quick to remind the Governor what life in the dreaded Industrial area station feels like.
No lunch for him today..
Industrial area prison walishakula lunch 10..now the governor will just eat supper saa tisa. 😂Sad

A day here equates to 3 years elsewhere..
A day at Industrial area prison remand is like 3 years in Kamiti Maximum GK prison. Migori governor Okoth Obado better be prepared to face a night in real hell.

The meals?
The minute Obado through his lawyer complain about eating ugali and sukuma wiki the gods of amadioha descend on him and send him to industrial area remand prison where half cooked beans awaits him.
You live by the sword you die by the sword!
