Note 1
Article on Barack Obama Sr. that plays to local interests in a Kenyan hero. But, I cite it here because it has directions on how to get to Obama Sr.'s former home:
Tracing Obama's home was a simple task. The home, located some 60 km from Kisumu town, is well known in Alego. Almost every villager you meet is ready to offer a tip on how to access the home.
To reach the home, one turns off the Kisumu-Siaya road near Ng'iya shopping centre and drives towards Obama's village market, Nyang'oma-Kogello. From there the home is just a stone's throw-away.
By local standards it is a vast well kept compound with Sarah's battered brick house sitting imposingly at the far end.
