US former President Barack Obama’s step-grandmother Sarah has been buried at her home in western Kenya in accordance to Muslim rites.
Mrs Obama died on Monday after a short undisclosed illness.
Former President Obama while eulogising her said she was a “bridge to the past” and that her stories helped “fill a void”.
