Obama's half-brother held on drugs charge

President's relative is arrested in Kenya after alleged marijuana seizure


NAIROBI, Kenya - The half-brother of President Barack Obama has been arrested for alleged possession of marijuana, Kenyan police said Saturday.


Area police chief Joshua Omokulongolo said George Obama was picked up Saturday and was being held at the Huruma police post in the capital.


Omokulongolo said officers found one joint of marijuana on him.


Obama reportedly denied the allegations.


"I don't know why they are charging me," CNN quoted Obama as saying from jail.


George Obama and the president had the same father but are not believed to have a close relationship.

 

that sucks.

it also sucks that this could come back on him.
that's lame.

media sucks haha

 

I didn't think Kenya would care about laws on maryjane. That sucks though, but I don't think it's really that big of an effect on Barack. Maybe if his brother lived in the U.S. maybe, but thousands of miles away is like whatevs.

 

Oh so what.

 

I have heard that George lives in extreme poverty and in a tiny one room shack. They oughta leave him alone.
My other lingering thought is why hasn't his senator/pres brother who owns a 1.5 million dollar house in Hyde Park sent George a few hundred bucks???!!!

 

haha, Oh George Obama... smarten up

 

lol.. a few weeks of sitting on that position are awaiting mass controversy...

 

Surprisingly So does Jamaica.

 

its just weed, omg, who f n cares.

i bet that shit is purple as hell in kenya damn
