Barack Obama, who turns 58 today, arguably has to be one of the most loved and most popular personalities ever. His charm, charisma, ability to empathize and affability is second to none and is largely the reason why he is the peoples’ person.
Obama became the first African-American president of the U.S. to the joy and chagrin of many, none of whom can deny that his election was a historic moment, not only in America but the world over.
Over his tenure, Obama had the ups and downs just like many presidents, but he had moments where he won the hearts of people across the world.
His life after presidency has also been an activity-filled one as he has been organizing and also partaking in several community building and philanthropic projects as wells as mentoring and empowerment programs.
To celebrate his birthday, Face2Face Africa shares with you 10 of his greatest quotes.
