Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. (;〔Sally H. Jacobs. ''The Other Barack''. PublicAffairs. 2011. (Excerpt at NPR.org ) Retrieved 16 September 2011. Quote: "The Old Man had also been called Barack, but his was a working man's name, with the emphasis on the first syllable."〕〔(Interview of Sally H. Jacobs by John Batchelor. ) ''The John Batchelor Show''. 16 July 2011 (19:10–19:50). Retrieved 16 September 2011.〕 18 June 1936〔 − 24 November 1982) was a Kenyan senior governmental economist and the father of U.S. President Barack Obama. He is a central figure of his son's memoir, ''Dreams from My Father'' (1995). Obama married in 1954 and had two children with his first wife, Kezia. He was selected for a special program to attend college in the United States, where he went to the University of Hawaii. There, Obama met Stanley Ann Dunham, whom he married in 1961 and her first son Barack II, named after him. She divorced him three years later. The elder Obama later went to Harvard University for graduate school, where he earned an M.A. in economics, and returned to Kenya in 1964.
Later that year, Obama married Ruth Beatrice Baker, a Jewish American woman whom he met in Massachusetts. They had two sons together before separating in 1971 and divorcing in 1973. Obama first worked for an oil company, before beginning work as an economist with the Kenyan Ministry of Transport. He gained a promotion to senior economic analyst in the Ministry of Finance. Among a cadre of young Kenyan men educated in the West in a program supported by Tom Mboya, Obama had conflicts with Kenyan President Jomo Kenyatta, which adversely affected his career. He was fired and blacklisted in Kenya, finding it nearly impossible to get a job. Obama experienced three serious car accidents during his final years, the last of which claimed his life in 1982.
==Early life==
Barack Obama was born in Rachuonyo District on the shores of Lake Victoria just outside Kendu Bay, British Kenya, at the time a colony and protectorate of the British Empire. He was raised in the village of Nyang'oma Kogelo, Siaya District, Nyanza Province.〔 〕 His family are members of the Luo ethnic group.
His father was Onyango (later Hussein) Obama (c. 1895–1979), and he married Habiba Akumu Nyanjango of Karabondi, Kenya, as his second wife. They had two daughters and a son together, Barack Obama (Sr). After Akumu separated from her husband Hussein and left the family in 1945, the three children were raised by his father's third wife, Sarah Ogwel of Kogelo.〔
As a young man, Barack Obama's father Onyango had traveled widely, enlisting in the British colonial forces and visiting Europe, India, and Zanzibar. There, Onyango converted from Roman Catholicism to Islam and took the name Hussein. He became a cook for missionaries and local herbalist in Nairobi.
''The Times'' of London reports that in 1949, after becoming more politically active, Onyango was jailed by the British for six months due to his working for the Kenyan independence movement. According to Sarah Onyango Obama, her husband Hussein Onyango was subjected to beatings and abuse; it resulted in permanent physical disabilities and his loathing of the British. David Maraniss' 2012 biography of President Barack Obama states that Onyango did not participate in the insurrections; nor was he ever imprisoned by the British during the uprising. He continued to be trusted by white Kenyans.〔JAMES FALLOWS (The Making of the President ‘Barack Obama,’ by David Maraniss ) 14 June 2012〕〔David Maraniss ''BARACK OBAMA The Story'' Simon & Schuster〕 Obama was raised in a Muslim family.〔Jacobs (2011), (p. 25 ): "Like all of Onyango's children and many of his grandchildren, Hawa Aumu was raised as a Muslim."〕 When he was about six years old and attending a Christian missionary school, the boy converted to Anglicanism when strongly encouraged by the staff. He changed his name from "Baraka" to "Barack".〔 Obama later became an atheist, believing that religion was mere superstition.
While still living near Kendu Bay, Obama attended Gendia Primary School. After his family moved to Siaya District, he transferred to Ng'iya Intermediate School.〔 From 1950 to 1953, he studied at Maseno National School, an exclusive Anglican boarding school in Maseno.〔Obama (1995, 2004), p. 418.〕 The head teacher, B.L. Bowers, described Obama in his records as "very keen, steady, trustworthy and friendly. Concentrates, reliable and out-going."〔 〕
