President Barack Obama’s Kenyan family seems to be sharply divided over the US presidential election.
His uncle, Said Obama, told BBC that he is supporting Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton.
He is however not a US citizen and will not be voting.
His position is in contrast to that of Malik Obama, a half-brother of the outgoing president, who has said he will be voting for Mr Trump.
Malik Obama will be attending tonight’s debate between the two candidates as a guest of Mr Trump.
Said Obama said that Mr Trump had made racist comments, which do not augur well for global peace.
