Obama’s brother launches book – in China
p2pnet news view | Politics:- “My father beat me,” Mark Okoth Obama Ndesandjo told reporters according to the BBC. “He beat my mother.”
He’s the son of Obama’s late father and his third wife, says the story, going on:
“Barack Obama Sr split from Mr Obama’s mother when the future president was aged two.
“Mr Ndesandjo, who lives in China, had previously shunned the media since his link to Mr Obama emerged in 2008. But in a news conference to promote the novel Nairobi to Shenzhen, he said a string of extraordinary events – including his brother being elected president – made him come to terms with his past.”
The book, a novel, “was originally meant to be his autobiography,” says Agence France-Presse.
It was “about a man who was forced to confront his early experiences in Kenya and the United States after arriving in China in the wake of the September 11 attacks.”
Ndesandjo said he’d publish his second book, an autobiography, “in the next few months,” says the story.
No need to stay tuned.
