    Barack Obama bids farewell to the spotlight!

    After 8 years of making history by being the first black president of the world’s powerhouse country, not to mention the first suave and dapper president – Barack Obama said his last goodbye’s to the world stage on Sunday at the end of his final foreign tour.

    Serving both the United States of America and the rest of the world, Obama has reached great milestones which saw his ruling style touch the lives of many.

     Among those are Obama's fellow world leaders, who said an emotional goodbye as they wrapped up a summit.

    "It's a great moment, but a sad moment, to have our last meeting," said Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

    "I am going to miss having Barack around," said Canada's Justin Trudeau, in comments that were tinged with a sense of uncertainty about things to come.

    On speaking about his plans after stepping down, Obama made it clear that a romantic getaway was his first priority because he needs to "take (First Lady) Michelle on vacation."

    The president also added that he wants to "get some rest, spend time with my girls and do some writing, do some thinking."

    Obama also made it clear that he would be giving Trump an opportunity to make America great as well.

    "I want to be respectful of the office and give the president-elect an opportunity to put forward his platform," he said.

    But Obama didn't rule it out altogether.

    "As an American citizen who cares deeply about our country, if there's specifics that have less to do with some proposal or battle but goes to core questions about our values and our ideals, and if I think that it's necessary or  helpful for me to defend those ideals then I'll examine it when it comes," he said.

    On behalf of our loyal readers, we at Entertainment_SA wish Obama all the best in his life after the presidency.
