The Nation has independently established that Migori Governor Okoth Obado was meant to represent the Council of Governors at the ongoing African Green Revolution Forum (AGRF) in Kigali, Rwanda, as the COGs Agriculture Committee Chairman.
Sources told the Nation the Governor had planned to travel on September 4, a day after university student Sharon Otieno and journalist Barrack Oduor were abducted.
The AGRF event kicked off on Wednesday, September 5, the day Ms Otieno’s body was discovered in a thicket in Oyugis, Homa Bay County.
The event concludes on Saturday, September 8, but the governor is not in Kigali.
