Obama look alike (9/7/09)mp

A 12-year-old boy from Kumasi, has been identified as an Obama look-alike in Ghana.
The boy, Felix Agyaba Afriyie, a pupil of Nagie’s Angels Educational Centre, Kumasi, is fair in complexion has big ears, thick eyebrows and is a left handed person just like the United States of America (USA) President.
In an interview with the Daily Graphic in Accra, Felix said his schoolmates had nicknamed him Obama,due to his resemblance to the US President.
“They say I look, talk, walk and laugh like President Obama”, he stated, adding that, “I always feel excited when they call me Obama”.
Born to Mr Kwame Agyaba Afriyie and Mrs Evelyn Davis on March 15, 1997, Felix wants to be a pastor in future.
He said his passion was to spread the word of God and save souls for Christ.
He said he would like to become an inspirational person like President Obama someday, to also touch the lives of people and offer a helping hand to people in need.
He described the US President as an intelligent and kind person for deciding to visit Ghana, the first nation he would be visiting in sub-Saharan Africa since he assumed office at the White House.
Fried rice and chicken is twelve-year-old Felix’s favourite food.
He said he would love to meet President Obama during his visit to Ghana and tell him to help Ghana develop to the standard of the USA.
