Witness reveals Sharon Otieno demanded a luxurious life and recognition as Okoth Obado's wife

Details have revealed that the late Sharon Otieno demanded to be recognised as the wife of former Migori Governor Okoth Obado's wife.

During a hearing on Tuesday Lawrence Mule, a witness told the court that Sharon demanded a rental house of between Ksh.20 - 25 million either in Nairobi or Kisumu. She also demanded a good car as the Governor’s wife and an upkeep of Ksh.5 million every month to take care of her and her baby.

Mule also revealed that the deceased demanded Ksh 200,000 for her prenatal care her prenatal care saying that she must be attended to in Nairobi since her status had changed.

"I tried to convince her to go to a hospital in the County but she said she can't go to a cheap hospital .She told me (Mheshimiwa, remember I'm governor’s wife and I'm carrying the governor’s child)" court was told. 

Mule who is a former MCA and was like a mediator between Sharon and Obado testified that the accused was not against having a relationship with Sharon, he only complained of the luxurious lifestyle she demanded.

Mule said that the governor gave Sharon a deal to build and furnish the house by August 2018 at a cost of about 3 to 4 million. 

Mule said that there's a time they met Oyamo together with Sharon where she was given the 200,000 shillings for her prenatal care and after some time she asked him to keep off the matter.

However, after meeting Obado’s PA Michael Oyamo, Sharon insisted that Mule should keep off her matters. 

"She told me she was going to meet Oyamo in Rongo to get some money for her upkeep, I told her it's Okay."

The witness was able to identify Oyamo who was in court but couldn't remember the person Oyamo used to walk with when meeting.

Sharon's Mom was to testify today but the prosecution said she was unable to.
