A section of youths in Nyamira county has reacted after a photo of embattled Migori Governor Okoth Obado reading a Bible surfaced online.
The youths praised Governor Obado for accepting God after his tribulations over the murder of Rongo University student Sharon Otieno a few months ago.
"Obado is walking with the Bible praying to God to forgive his sins. Our leaders should copy what Obado is doing currently after he was released on bond following the murder charges he is facing in court," wrote Evans Nyangaresi in a Nyamira Mashinani WhatsApp group on Wednesday.
Amos Momanyi argued that Obado is seeking refuge in the church following the embarrassment he faced during his arrest.
"Obado is a changed man after suffering in the police cells. He is reading the Bible to comfort himself so that he can continue serving the people of Migori," said Momanyi.
Gideon Mosomi, however, challenged Nyamira Governor John Nyagarama to also accept God so that he can discharge his duties diligently.
"Nyagarama should copy Obado and start walking with the Bible, reading it to seek God's guidance while discharging his daily duties," noted Mosomi.
