The Good Morning Britain hosts grilled Barack Obama's sibling on his motives behind his surprising decision to back Trump over Hillary Clinton.

"I was watching the news while I was in Washington DC and the FBI Director comes out and declares that there's not enough evidence to prosecute Hillary Clinton," he said in a live link-up from Kenya.

"I'd been following the story and it was clear that she had set up this email server, private email server, and had been communicating with it. I said to myself, 'if she is the custodian of classified information, what if it was someone else, one of her employees - would she approve?'"

Asked by Morgan how his brother has taken the news, the 58-year-old said: "I am my own man and I speak my mind and a decision was made. It was a personal decision. It had nothing to do with allegiance or anything like that."
