I can’t remember who’s middle name was “second born twin”. Who and where is the first born twin?
It was while we were looking for ‘David’ Obama that we came across the name Opiyo. David Opiyo. His parents were supposedly Ruth and Barack Hussein Obama (Snr)
A translation of the second name was shown as ‘the first of twins’.
However, Opiyo turned out to be a recurring name in the Kenyan Obama family, thus the ‘twin’ distinction would have been meaningless.
