Kenyan government imposes gag order on Obama family

No media contact: We are doing this because we want to ensure better flow 
of information

The Kenyan government has barred unapproved contacts between the media and 
President-elect Barack Obamas extended family.





Family members will be required to receive permission from the government 
before making any public statements about their famous relative, according 
to the Nairobi Star.

We are doing this because we want to ensure better flow of information, 
Athman Said, an under-secretary in the Ministry of Heritage, told the 
Obama family in Kogelo.

The government has decided that you should inform its officers who will be 
based here if you want to address the media.

Journalists wishing to speak with the family must first be approved by the 
government.

Wheres the proof Barack Obama was born in the U.S. or that he fulfills the 
natural-born American clause in the Constitution? If you still want to see 
it, join more than 193,000 others and sign up now!

This is not the first attempt to block press interest in President-elect 
Obamas African connections.

Prior to the U.S. election, WND senior staff reporter Jerome R. Corsi was 
detained in Kenya while investigating Obamas close ties to the nations 
prime minister, Raila Odinga.

The Kenyan official who reportedly orchestrated the detention was Odinga 
himself, according to WND sources inside Kenya.
