NAIROBI, Kenya (CNN) -- George Obama, the half brother of U.S. President Barack Obama, has been arrested by Kenyan police on a charge of possession of marijuana, police said Saturday.

Inspector Augustine Mutembei, the officer in charge, said Obama was arrested on charges of possession of cannabis, known in Kenya as Bhang, and resisting arrest. He is scheduled to appear in court Monday, Mutembei said.

He is being held at Huruma police post in the capital of Nairobi.

CNN Correspondent David McKenzie talked with George Obama at the jail where he is being held. Speaking from behind bars, Obama denied the allegations.

"They took me from my home," he said, "I don't know why they are charging me."

George Obama and the president barely know each other, though they have met before. George Obama was one of the president's few close relatives who did not go to the inauguration in Washington last week.

OMG! OMG! It's all my fault. See, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. During the campaign when I found out about George Obama and learned that his older brother wouldn't help him, I sent a check to George. Now I've learned that he has used the check to buy illegal drugs. The horror. The horror.

And we hold people responsible for what others do, for what reason, exactly?

That'd be like holding Gunny responsible because you're a flipping idiot. See how that works?

For some reason...I'm remembering Billy Beer.

I dont think anyone was holding President Obama responsible for his brothers actions. Just asking why Presidential brothers seem to get into alot of trouble.

So what you're saying is we should apply a double standard.

Hopefully, Obama will push to make it legal

Cause that's such a high priority.

Obama's brother smoked marihuana, so what?

The president himself did it too (smoke marihuana).

Obama had written in his first book, "Dreams From My Father" (1995), before entering politics, that he had used marijuana and cocaine ("maybe a little blow"). He said he had not tried heroin because he did not like the pusher who was trying to sell it to him.

You know Obama kind of is like a cult icon, he reminds me of another cult icon of the past that he now seems to be the lighter version of:

Yeah, rasta man

Obama's brother to the cops: " Yo, you can't arrest me, son! My brother is the president of the UNITED STATES, Gee!"

Collect call to the white house from brother: " Yo man, they popped me wit' some chronic, son."
Obama: " Keep yo' head up, homie."

with the health benefits it has and the money we are wasting enforcing the law and on the war against which we are loosing I would say it should be a high priority!

How would it be a double standard, this guy lives in Kenya and is an adult, her daughter was living under her roof and was a minor, there is alittle difference!

 

[Lycurgus]

We all know too well that Obama's family tree is not something he likes to talk about. Well except for his white grandmother and white mother.
