Migori County Governor Okoth Obado has been produced before the high court in Nairobi.
Okoth has been behind bars from Friday when he was arrested over the murder of his lover Sharon Otieno.
Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has said Obado will be charged with aiding, abetting and financing the murder of his 26-year-old pregnant lover after in efforts to protect his reputation.
A battery of high profile lawyers, led by Cliff Ombeta, is expected to represent the governor at the court.
According to a source, lawyers have been told to ensure the suspect is at least released today through a bond.
