Mark Obama Ndesandjo says he and his mom Ruth Nidesand were beat by Barack Obama Sr.

Mark Obama Ndesandjo is Barack Obama’s half brother.

Now Mark Obama Ndesandjo has a new book out about his life being beaten by Barack Obama Sr. The book “Nairobi to Shenzhen” previously profiled on LALATE comes after a year in which Mark has not talked to the media once. The book is self published. Today, Mark Obama who changed his name to Mark Ndesandjo lives in Shenzhen.

Ruth Nidesand was a Harvard graduate student when she met Barack Obama Sr in Boston. Thereafter, Ruth and Barack returned to his native Kenya. There in Kenya Mark and his brother would be born (his brother would later die in a motorcycle accident).

But how many children did Obama Sr have? It still remains unknown. An AP reports says “at least” six other children by Obama Sr were born in Kenya before his passing in 1982 in a car crash. There in Kenya Obama Sr had children with his first wife even while with Ruth. President Obama would be born in Hawaii in 1961 and in 1963 his mother Stanley Ann Dunham and Obama Sr separated.
