Cha-cha
Migori Senator Eddy Oketch was removed from a court session earlier this week following allegations of misconduct. The incident occurred during proceedings in a case involving his client, Noah Oketch, who faces charges of forging academic documents to secure employment at the Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation.
Reports indicate that Senator Oketch’s behavior disrupted the court’s proceedings, leading to his ejection by the presiding magistrate. The specifics of the misconduct have not been publicly disclosed, but such actions are typically deemed inappropriate in legal settings.
In a related matter, Senator Oketch is embroiled in a dispute with his former client over a Ksh 500,000 bail payment. The lawyer claims that despite dropping his legal representation, Oketch has not refunded the money. Senator Oketch asserts that he has repaid Ksh 375,000 and has provided M-Pesa transaction records to support his claim. The court has instructed both parties to present these records in the next hearing.
This series of events has drawn public attention to Senator Oketch’s conduct, prompting discussions about accountability and professionalism among public figures.
