Watch: President Obama shows off some mean dance moves in Kenya

This was most definitely not your average state dinner. President Obama and Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta put on their dancing shoes and twirled the night away with Kenyan band Sauti Sol.

Obama made history last week when he became the first sitting US president to visit Kenya , a country where his father was born and raised. Obama first visited Kenya 30 years ago.

Sauti Sol posted an Instagram video of the president dancing  with Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta , first lady Margaret Kenyatta and US national security adviser Susan Rice.

President Obama also in his speech mentioned how his father and Kenyatta’s father knew each other. as reported by the Washington Post .

“My father was significantly younger. And it’s true that it would have been hard for them to imagine how their sons might be sitting here today,” Obama said.
