It has been a long journey but thank God, Obama arrived home safely yesternight.

Hundreds turned up to receive the US president Barack Obama while some went to the airport, others lined up along the busy Nairobi-Mombasa highway just to catch a glimpse of the world's powerful president.

Although many did not have a chance to see him face to face, they were excited that at least Obama came back home for the first time after he became the president of the US. From small-scale traders to the transportation industry, they did something just to honor Obama. Known for naming matatus after legends, heroes and celebs, a local matatu decided to honor Obama in a special way.
