Kenyan Mother Names Her New Born Twins After Obama And Romney

The Obama-Romney frenzy has caught up with a Kenyan woman who recently put to bed in the east African country – which also happens to be Obama’s ancestral home country.

The woman, Millicent Owuor, 20, who gave birth to the twins in south-west Kenya on the day Obama was re-elected, decided to name her new-born twins after the US President and his Republican rival, Mitt Romney.

According to Kenya’s Standard newspaper, the woman delivered the twins at a hospital, just a stone throw away from Obama’s ancestral home village of Kogelo where wild jubilations greeted the democratic candidate’s victory.

Millicent said she named her twins after the winner and loser in remembrance of the US election date.
