Article
Boggy Peak (/boʊɡi/) is a mountain located in the southwest of Antigua, a constituent island of the archipelagic country of Antigua and Barbuda. At a height of 1,319 feet (402 m), it is the highest point of the Shekerley Mountains and the island as a whole.
In 2009, Boggy Peak was renamed Mount Obama by then prime minister of Antigua and Barbuda Baldwin Spencer, in honour of then US president Barack Obama. The name change was criticised by the parliamentary opposition at the time and reverted in 2016 by the government that succeeded Spencer's.
