Officers from the Ethics and Anti Corruption Commission (EACC) on Tuesday morning conducted a raid on homes belonging to Migori Governor Okoth Obado.
The officers reportedly managed to gain access into Obado's homes in Migori and Nairobi's Lavington Estate where they allegedly seized very crucial documents.
This comes a month barely after the commission accused the county chief of syphoning close to 2 billion shillings through fraudulent tenders.
The documents are expected to be used by the graft watchdog to prosecute the embattled Governor who is not new to criminal charges and controversies.
Obado has remained silent on the raid, with his press arm adding that they are not yet aware of the actual evidence being sought by the detectives.
According to the Director of Press in his office Nicholas Ayuor, the Governor is in the dark on the reason behind the sudden raid, reports the Citizen Digital.
This comes a month barely after Obado was released on bail from the Industrial Area Remand Prison over his alleged involvement in the murder of Rongo University student Sharon Otieno.
Obado's murder case is set to be heard again early next year after High Court Judge Jessie Lesiit released him on a Ksh 5 million bail.
