Obama is this dude that world’s frickin’ obsessed with at the moment, you know, if you’ve been in a cave for the past two years. Odinga is of course the Prime Minister appointed in a power sharing agreement after the post election violence in January and Oliech is the star striker for the National Team. “Obama! Odinga! and Oliech! Obama! Odinga! and Oliech!” One of the chants, I found to be particularly interesting: There were chants and cheers and songs and when a goal was scored by Kenya road flares burst alight across the stadium and empty plastic bottles and cans rained down from the upper sections. It was every bit as rife with beer and somewhat jingoistic pride as any country’s national sporting event would be. In September, I went to the Kenya-Namibia futbol game with JimmyJames, Dainty, Donut, and JimmyJames’ brother-in-law.
