Migori Governor Okoth Obado has sensationally claimed that ODM leader Raila Odinga is orchastrating his tribulations over political differences.
Through his brother Daudi Okoth, the second term governor believes that Mr Odinga is afraid of his upward trajectory in popularity in South Nyanza, a region that has traditionally voted for ODM.
"There is someone who thinks he's a god. He thinks that Luo Nyanza will be under him forever and he has something to do with this (Obado's tribulations).
"It's absurd to believe that Obado is the most corrupt governor in Kenya. This is purely politics and someone is afraid of brewing insurgency," he noted in reference to Raila.
At Nyamira last week in the company of Deputy President William Ruto, Obado sensationally claimed that he was under siege from 'crocodile', a phrase associated with Mr Odinga.
But in a rejoinder, ODM Vice Chair Janet Ong'era accused Mr Obado of blaming Odinga his political and social tribulations which are 'his own making'.
"He is dragging the party leader to issues that matters not. He is even misinterpretating using of crocodiles phrases. Let him handle his problems in peace," she said.
On Friday, Obado was freed on Sh500, 000 bond after spending two days in police cells over eight firearms that were recovered from his Nairobi and Migori homes.
