In a statement to the Directorate of criminal Investigation (DCI) recorded on September 23,Hellen Adhiambo the First Lady of Migori county whose husband is being accused of the brutal murder of Sharon has claimed Obado sat her down in May and admitted his affair with Sharon revealing to her that the Rongo University student was pregnant.
”I asked him if he was planning to marry Sharon as a second wife.I honestly preferred he married instead of having affairs. He told me had no such plans and that he had ended the relationship with the said girl,Hellen’s statement reads.
As information proceeds according to the star Hellen also welcomed Sharon’s baby to their lives and was willing to introduce the new born to the family.
Kenyans however ever reacted differently to the news of Hellen’s new revealings to the DCI Some are totally unmoved that she was okay to have settled for a polygamous life.
Some Kenyan politicians in the past have publicly embraced and bragged about their polygamous status like Senator Joy Gwendo. Nominated senator hit the headlines when it was revealed that she was dating a married man Thomas Mbewa.
“It is true am dating Joy and we have known each other for the last three years. Its been an on and off relationship which my wife knows about and we have decided to formalize it. We are now engaged and soon i will call you and other members of the fourth estate for a formal marriage,” Mbewa told the Nairobian in 2014.
Hellen also said she later saw a text from Sharon in Obado’s phone during their son’s graduation in July. “It was then that i asked him how he was going to bring the baby home without informing their children.This was when the talks of Sharon’s pregnancy became common.
”My husband said he would only discuss the welfare of the child if proved to be his.” Obado then later admitted paternity.
Sharon’s sentiments however on Obado’s wife statement about her being the second wife has laid with her after she was brutally murdered on September the third while seven months pregnant with the governors child. The governor has been charged with murder, conspiracy and financing that he has denied. He is being remanded until his bail hearing on October.
It has emerged that the governor’s wife confronted him with questions about Sharon after a devolution conference. She told the detectives that unknown caller called her from Awendo sub county and introduced himself as the governor’s family friend. He mentioned there was a plot in April to record a sex tape with her husband Sharon Otieno.
Sharon was booked at the Imperial Hotel in Kisumu where the sex episode was to be video taped.
“I called one of our coordinators from Awendo to inquire if Sharon was part of the governor’s campaign team dubbed Warembo na Obado. We confirmed she wasn’t,” the governors wife said.
Hellen’s husband was at the devolution conference in kakamega when she called him and inquired if he had relations with Sharon which he denied saying he was at the Acacia Premier Hotel and not booked at Imperial Hotel. Obado’s however still informed him of the plan to record him.
Hellen told the DCI that between August 26 and September 1 she was engaged at an SDA camp meeting which was hosted at the church near her home. On August 31 she returned to Nairobi to attend a council of governor’s meeting for first ladies and in addition she ran personal errands buying some building materials for the church.
Hellen further said that Obado was in Nairobi on the night of Sharon’s murder.
“My husband our first and third born left Migori for Nairobi on September 2. They arrived late in the evening and did not leave the house,” she added. On the third of September she allegedly spoke with mama Ida Odinga through the governors phone.
She narrated on that her husband had left home for the Jaffery club and had a meeting later with Ida after which he later returned home at 8.00 pm and didn’t leave the house again.
