*AFGHANISTAN'S BABY *DONALD TRUMP*


Inspired by Trump : Donald was born in the central province of Daikundi, a few months before the 2016 US presidential election-

On the farm where Sayed's parents and grandparents grew almonds, wheat and corn.

Sayed was inspired to call his son Donald Trump after reading the Persian language versions of  the businessman's books, including ''How to get rich,'' which he borrowed from the local library........

DONALD TRUMP flops over his pink and white baby walker and rolls it around his family's modest home in Kabul, blissfully unaware-

Of the turmoil his 'infidel' name is causing in the deeply conservative Muslim country.

The rosy-cheek toddler's parents named him after the billionaire US President in the hope of replicating his success.

 But now he is at the centre of social media firestorm in Afghanistan after a photo of his ID papers was posted on Facebook.

A self-confessed fan of the American tycoon turned leader of the free world. Syed Assadullah  Pooya said he and his wife have been inundated with ''vulgar and insulting'' comments attacking their choice of name for their third child.

Some Facebook users have gone as far as threatening to kill Sayed for giving his son an ''infidel name'' while others have accused him of endangering the boy's life.

There are even suggestions that Sayed is using the moniker to wrangle asylum in the United States - a charge that 28 year-old teacher vehemently denies.

''I didn't know at the beginning that Afghan people would be so sensitive about a name,'' Sayed told AFP. as Donald played with a music app on his father's  Samsung smartphone in their carpeted room.

Sayed says someone posted the picture online, sparklng the controversy that forced him to close his  Facebook account.

Even Sayed's neighbors in the heavily Shiite area of Kabul where they live have threatened the family and told them to leave.

''When I go out of the house, I feel intimated,'' he said. [Agencies]
