Did American Billionaire Donald Trump Really Threaten To Deport Kenyans Including President Obama From The U.S.A Once He Becomes President?

It’s an article that has spread widely, shared extensively and has caused a pandemonium in the world especially among Kenyans.

Which article is this you wonder? It’s an article about controversial presidential candidate Donald Trump talking about deporting Kenyans including Obama if he becomes president.

The story is believed to have originated from Newslo a satirical website. An excerpt from the article reads:

“…For example, I’ve had my eye on Kenyans for a while now. The whole thing started back in the 17th century, which makes me believe that there’s more to that challenge than meets the eye. ‘Kenyan Americans,’ as they call themselves, have been here for a while now, and there are bound to be some difficulties with the whole deportation process. But, I wouldn’t be who I am if didn’t love a good challenge,” Trump told Newslo.

Just like with Mexico, the media magnate also said he will make Kenya pay for the costs of deportation: “It’s really no different than Mexico, just like no other deportation will deviate significantly from this model, which I would like to call ‘Trump’s final solution.’ I promise Americans that I will make the Kenyan government pay for the deportation of every descendant of every Kenyan who today resides in the United States, regardless of how they came to be here.”

When asked whether his previous statement about the deportation of the descendants of Kenyans would include President of the United States Barack Obama, whose father is Kenyan, Trump replied: “Naturally. There will be no exceptions. Especially so, since the situation in which America is today is largely his fault. When he’s deported, the long road to recovery will finally be able open for us.

Unfortunately, some people have believed this story,it  has even been picked up by respected newspapers, like the Star
