This news hit the world today. Barack Obama’s long brother found in Kenya. This Twenty six year old guy Named George Hussein Onyango Obama found in a hut on the outskirts of Nairobi. The youngest of the presidential candidate’s half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender for the most powerful post in the world. “No-one knows who I am,” the younger brother of the White House hopeful was quoted as saying by the Vanity Fair magazine.

According to Italy’s Vanity Fair his two metre by three metre shack had a front page newspaper picture of his famous brother — born of the same father as him, Barack Hussein Obama, but to a different mother, named only as Jael. Embarrassed by his penury, he said, “If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed”. “I live here on less than a dollar a month,” he claimed, adding “I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist”. He has only met his famous older brother twice — once when he was just five and the last time in 2006 when senator Obama was on a tour of East Africa and visited Nairobi, Daily Telegraph newspaper said in a report.

Obama mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a “beautiful boy with a rounded head”
