[George Njunge, Standard}The multi-million shilling graft case against Migori Governor Okoth Obado and his associates will be heard in Nairobi following refusal by a judge to transfer it to Migori. Justice Wakiaga dismissed claims by Joram Otieno, one of Obado's co-accused, that they had been facing hardships travelling to Nairobi for the hearing of the Sh373 million graft case. He ruled that the claim was a basis for not transferring the file, since some of the accused were comfortable with the case in Nairobi. The application to transfer the file is, therefore, dismissed,” ruled Wakiaga.
