Running for governor of County of Siaya
Malik Obama, president Barack Obama's older half-brother, announced he will run for governor in the Kenyan county of Siaya, Bloomberg reports.

"Siaya county is facing a lot of problems from poor infrastructure to poverty due to bad leadership," Obama said, according to Bloomberg. "I will change this if elected."
