Malik Obama Tweets Fake Barack Obama’s Kenyan Birth Certificate

Malik Obama is under fire for sharing a fake document suggesting that his half-brother, former US President Barack Obama was born in Kenya.

The doctored birth certificate uploaded by Malik on Twitter on Monday indicated that Barack was born at the Coast General Hospital in Mombasa on August 4th, 1961.

“What’s this?” Malik captioned a photo of the alleged birth certificate.

Malik appeared to imply that he had found evidence of Barack’s actual birthplace contrary to the fact that he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii.

But some internet users were quick to note a number of glaring errors on the fabricated document. For example, it indicated the “Republic of Kenya,” contrary to the fact that the country was still under colonial rule in 1961.

A reverse search of the document also showed it was issued by the Australian Registration of Birth to one David Bomford, who was born in South Africa in 1959.

Barack’s half-sister Auma Obama and deported Kenyan-Canadian lawyer Miguna Miguna are among online users who condemned Malik for posting the fake certificate.

Auma tweeted: “So blindly consumed by jealousy and bitterness that you will go to any length to slander your younger brother’s name – literally! Just because he has outshone you in EVERY SINGLE ASPECT of his life. Seek relevance elsewhere big brother!”

She added: “Long before he even knew he would be president my little brother visited his fatherland and was embraced by all!!! Malik you took centre stage in welcoming him!!!” 

Miguna wrote: “Chief: Let your brother live in peace. Stop helping Donald Trump–a white supremacist–smear your brother in the mud.” 

Malik, a staunch supporter of current US President Trump, has had a frosty relationship with his brother Barack for years. While Malik often attacks Obama online, the 44th US president has never responded to his salvos.
