President Barack Obama will make his first trip as president to Kenya. the country of his father's birth.
The White house
says Obama will visit Kenya in July 15,2015 for the Global Entrepreneurship
Summit, which brings together business leaders, international
organizations and governments. This will be the first time the summit
takes place in sub-Saharan Africa.
Obama visited Kenya as a U.S. senator, but never as president. During a
trip to other African countries last year, he said he was likely to
visit Kenya before leaving the White House.
The president's father came to the United States from Kenya for school
and returned to his home country after his son's birth. The elder Obama
died more than 30 years ago, though the president has other family still
living in Kenya.
