The father of five says his friends have nicknamed him Mr Obama and he has been mistaken for the real Obama for ten years. He said:
'Some people even ask me if I am his brother. I work as a tour guide so I am always meeting new people and their reaction is always the same. As soon as they see me they say: "Oh my God, you look just like Obama!"'I find it very funny and I don't mind posing for photographs with people.
