Migori Governor Okoth Obado and his four children will be detained until Monday, when the bail ruling will be delivered. Mugambi said the earliest he can give the bail ruling is on Monday. Obado and his children were arraigned in court to answer to the graft charges before Chief Magistrate Lawrence Mugambi. Obado was separately charged with eight counts of conflict of interest for the different times that each of the children received money in their accounts from the county's coffers. The governor will be charged separately on 28 accounts with each of his children for the different amounts of money that was sent to them.
