Migori Governor PA Oyamo now at Kisumu DCI as tension heightens

Michael Oyamo, the personal assistant to Migori Governor Okoth Obado, is currently being held at the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) offices in Kisumu.

Both Governor Obado as well as Nation journalist Barack Oduor are also being held at the same station from where they will be transferred to Nairobi later on in the day.

Collection of DNA samples of Oyamo and the Migori County boss are said to be ongoing to allegedly establish whether any of them is responsible for the late Sharon Otieno’s pregnancy.

Sources told Citizen Digital that Oyamo was moved from Homa Bay Police Station on Tuesday morning due to high tension in the county and the gravity of the matter..

This comes even as his legal team remained in the dark over his whereabouts.

On Tuesday morning, advocate June Ashioya and her co-counsel arrived at the Homa Bay High Court to wait for their client to appear as was directed by the Senior Magistrate the previous day.

However, hours later, Oyamo was nowhere to be seen forcing them to go back to Homa Bay Police Station to find out his whereabouts.

Members of the public had also gathered outside the Homa Bay High Court waiting for the arraignment but began to leave after they realised Oyamo was nowhere in sight.

Oyamo was arrested on September 4 after the abduction of Sharon Otieno and Nation journalist Barack Oduor.

Sharon’s body was found a day later next to Kodera Forest with stab wounds that the Government Pathologist said also pierced the unborn baby.
