Malik Obama Accuses Brother Barack of Lying Over $15 Million Home Purchase ¶
On September 2, Malik Obama, brother of former US President Barack Obama, took to Twitter to accuse his brother of lying to him about being broke after purchasing a $15 million home.
According to Malik, Barack Obama had told him he was broke, but then went on to buy a $15 million home in Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. Malik expressed his disappointment and frustration on Twitter, stating, 'A rising tide lifts all boats but not in Barack Obama's case. Buys a $15 million home and tells me to my face that he's broke. Slick folks.'
The $15 million home is a 29-acre estate with a beachfront, 6,892-square-foot main house and seven bedrooms. Barack Obama's family had been renting the property but loved their stay so much they decided to throw in an offer.
Twitter users were unimpressed by Malik's sentiments, with many taking to remind him that his brother, who had the enviable title of POTUS, did not owe him anything.
