Obamas surprise many with their humility in church


A photo of US President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama and their two daughters “squeezed” between other congregants during a church service has left many Kenyans in awe of the America First Family’s humility.

The photo shows the sharply dressed Obamas singing a hymn while standing in a middle row alongside other worshipers.

This is in stark contrast to the attitude of Kenyans political leaders who are certain to be reserved acres of spaces on the front rows during churches services.

Worse, Kenyan leaders are always offered a chance “to greet the people” at the end of the official sermons, opportunities which they almost always use to advance their political agendas.
