      *The Kenyan grandmother of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama is safe and sound today after thieves attempted to break into her home early Wednesday, the candidate's uncle told The Associated Press.

       Located in the western Kenya village of Kogelo, the home of Sarah Obama was targeted by robbers who used a ladder to access the roof after finding all of the doors had been locked.

      "I just spoke to Sarah, and she's OK," he told The AP Thursday. "The police have been there since yesterday, and we're not worried. Everything is fine."

       As of press time, it was not known how many thieves were involved or if any were in police custody.

Sarah & Barack Obama

      Barack Obama's late father was born and raised in Kenya. According to The AP, his Kenyan relatives have tried to keep a low profile and have been reluctant to comment on their security in Kogelo, more than 300 miles from the capital, Nairobi.

       The Illinois senator is wildly popular in Kenya, where minibuses are emblazoned with his picture and vendors sell T-shirts bearing his image at traffic lights.
