White House: President Briefly Lived With Kenyan-Born Uncle
The White House has acknowledged that as a student at Harvard Law School in the 1980s, the president briefly lived with his Kenyan-born uncle, after it first denied the two had ever met.
Earlier this week, Onyango Obama, 69, faced a deportation that resulted from a 2011 drunken-driving arrest. At the hearing, which he won, the judge asked about his family, and Onyango replied that he had a nephew named Barack Obama, adding, “He’s the president of the United States.”
According to The Boston Globe, Onyango also testified that while the future president was attending Harvard Law School, he briefly stayed with him.
