Former Migori Governor Okoth Obado is set to lose property worth Ksh.235 million believed to have been fraudulently acquired through proceeds of corruption.
The anti-graft agency is set to sell eight prime properties belonging to former Migori Governor Okoth Obado and his proxies in a public auction.
Also to be sold are two land cruisers.
This is after Obado and the team offered to surrender the properties and vehicles following successful talks with the commission.
The properties includes Loresho Ridge House with a market value of Sh40 million, a commercial block known as Sunrise Centre in Suna East worth Sh88 million, 5-storey residential blocks each with a total of 20 two-bedroom units with a market value of Sh57.6 million and two apartments in Greenspan worth Sh9 million each.
Others are a residential property in Kamagambo worth Sh10 million, another developed two single-storey residential blocks with eight one-bedroom units worth Sh7.5 million, maisonette in Nairobi worth Sh14.5 million.
Also surrendered are two motor vehicles.
All these items according to a consent adopted in court by Justice Esther Maina have a current market value of Sh235 million.
The commission has instituted two suits against Obado, his children and proxies.
One of the cases was for the forfeiture of unexplained assets of Sh1.9bn and the other recovery of Sh73 million being proceeds of corruption.
