U.S. President Barack Obama kissed the forehead of 3-week-old Ethan Jedidiah Muhire of Marshalltown, Iowa during a campaign stop in Marshalltown on Tuesday, August 14. The maiden Miss Rwanda Grace Bahati gave birth to a baby boy, the first child for the beauty queen and her boyfriend William Muhire. The proud father posted a photo of President Barack Obama cuddling and kissing baby Ethan Muhire’s forehead on Facebook and wrote: “So proud of my son Ethan Jedidiah Muhire for making history this young!”“Forehead kisses from the greatest man on the planet HE: Barack Obama today in Marshalltown IA!! Papa n mum so proud.”Muhire, an upcoming Rwandan rapper, famous for his stage name K8 Kavuyo, started dating Bahati in early 2009, before she was crowned Miss Rwanda at the age of 18. Bahati, who is now 21, will not be allowed to crown her successor at the Miss Rwanda 2012 ceremony that will be held in Kigali on September 1 – after giving birth to a child out of wedlock, since it is considered a taboo in the Rwandan culture.The first Miss Rwanda beauty contest was held on December 18, 2009 and it’s second edition is set for Saturday, September 1. The contestants, who were selected from all the four provinces, are yet to move through beauty boot camp to prepare themselves for the grand finale.
