TRANSITION
ZEITUNI ONYANGA, US president Barack Obama’s aunt.
Not long after US authorities granted her wish to live in the country, America’s President Barack Obama’s aunt Zeitun Onyango succumbed to cancer last month.
Her death blew off a blinding controversy over her burial – whether in US or Kenya, her birthplace she fought really hard to avoid. In her spirited move to live in the America, Zeituni kept claiming that Kenya poised danger to her life.
She was the step-sister of the president’s father, Barack Hussein Obama senior.
