Malik Obama Accuses Barack Obama of Buying KSh 1.5B House

September 2, 2019, marked a new chapter in the long-standing feud between former US President Barack Obama and his brother Malik Obama.

Malik Obama, who has been at odds with his family for years, took to Twitter to express his outrage over his brother's recent purchase of a KSh 1.5 billion house.

According to Malik, Barack Obama had no right to buy the house, especially since he had previously claimed to be broke.

Malik's tweet sparked a heated debate on social media, with many users defending Barack Obama's right to buy the house.

However, others sided with Malik, questioning how Barack Obama could afford such an expensive house when he had previously claimed to be struggling financially.

The feud between the Obama brothers dates back to the 1990s, when they were still relatively unknown in public life.
