    Teenage girl quits school to marry Obama's half brother in Kenya

    The polygamist half-brother of President Obama has married a woman who is over 30 years his junior.

    Although having two other wives, Malik Obama, 52, wed 19-year-old Sheila Anyango despite protests from the girl's family.

    Malik's new mother-in-law Mary Aoko Ouma says she is furious her daughter quit school to get married to the much older man.

    She says her daughter tried to marry Malik Obama two years ago, but she wouldn't give her permission to the nuptials.

    Ouma said that she struggled to send her six kids to school since her husband died in 1996 and she was very disappointed Anyango hasn't completed her education.

    The saddened mother of the bride said her daughter was also setting a bad example for her sister who is still in high school.

    'I told her not to get married until she has finished her education. Let the world teach her a lesson even if she has problems in her marriage. I don't want to see her again', Ouma said.

    Ouma said she did not receive a bride price from Malik Obama but if she did she would accept it and spend it on schooling for her other children.
    'I told her not to get married until she has finished her education. I don't want to see her again'

    Polygamy is legal in Kenya where Obama's Muslim half-brother lives if it falls under religious or cultural traditions.

    Although knowingly speaking to journalists, in an interview filmed without his knowledge by Kenya's NTV, Malik says he married the teenager but did not say when the ceremony took place.

    'She decided she doesn't want to go back to school. She wants to get married now. She came here, and what am I supposed to do? So we are married', Malik said on the video broadcast.

    Kenyan District Education Officer Jane Omogi said officials are investigating the matter but declined to make any further comment.

    Malik and President Obama's share the same father - Barack Obama Sr., who had six sons and a daughter.

    Kenyans have claimed the President as one of their own even though Barack didn't know his father or relatives very well and was raised by his mother and grandmother in Hawaii.
