Barack Obama had quite a family reunion when he arrived in Kenya recently.
The US President, who's visiting his father's homeland first time as president, met three-dozen members of his Kenyan family for dinner at his hotel and sat down to his half-sister Auma and step-grandmother Sarah Obama, who was the third wife of the president's paternal grandfather, ABC News reported.
Obama refers to her simply as Granny.
Meanwhile, Auma, who had picked up the POTUS back in 1988 during his first ever visit up at the airport, was one of the first to greet him when he at the Jobo Kenyatta International Airport.
However, Obama won't be able to visit Kogelo, the village where his father was born and buried, due to his busy schedule.
The President will spend two days in Kenya before traveling to Ethiopia on Sunday. It would be his first time a sitting U.S. president had visited either country.
