40 GOATS TO BUY CHELSEA Former US president Bill Clinton has been offered 40 goats and 20 cows for his daughter by a love-struck African government official. sky.com Mr Clinton was offered the deal on a recent trip to Kenya. He was offered the animals as a traditional African way of getting a father to give away his daughter's hand in marriage. The dowry is a very generous one by the country's own standards. Godwin Kipkemoi Chepkurgor wrote to Mr Clinton through Kenya's Foreign Minister. He said: "Had I succeeded in wooing Chelsea, I would have had a grand wedding. "I would have invited South African Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu to preside at the ceremony." The councillor gave the names of the former Kenyan president Daniel Arap-Moi and two of his college mates as character references. Mr Chepkurgor also said he was also impressed by Mr Clinton's wife, Hillary, for standing by Mr Clinton during the Monica Lewinksy scandal. He said Mrs Clinton acted like a "like an African woman".
