A few weeks ago, Governor of Migori Okoth Obado was released on bail. The release triggered mixed emotions. His supporters were ecstatic; their prayers had been answered. Others wondered, what a world, where a life is snuffed out and it appears that there are no answers, no justice.
While the governor is on bail, he has been subjected to a number of restrictions, such as not being able to travel outside the country or 20km within his county.
