I have been meaning to post about this, but still need to finish research:
“Otula says Obama Sr went straight to the US from Maseno.”
He may have been led to believe that, but I think that cannot be correct. I think BHO may have gone to Nairobi to work as a clerk (for same organization that that woman, Elizabeth? worked for)-—the woman who helped grease the wheels to get BHO to the US.
Will locate & post.
while you are thinking about that..who greased the wheels for Lolo to show up in Hawaii to go to school...from a country with a leader that was a Communist sympathizer? And was he in the military at that point or did that come later?
I think you mean Gloria Hagberg:

Just remember, that when this photograph was taken, with the members of the first airlift, Obama Sr was already in Hawaii.
Senior was mentored by two AMerican Missionaries (near Niarobi). They prepared him to take the test at the American Embassy that qualified him for the scholarship to the U of HI. (Look at information on Lois Anderson....It may be an important link)
