Ummm...

She's the daughter of Olusegun Obasanjo, a native of Abeokuta in what is sometimes called Yorubaland, though more specifically, it's part of Egbaland. And I am not as familiar with Yoruba sub-groups, but if he's Egba, then she must be, too, no? What does that leave in doubt as to her ethnicity? I know less about her mother, but "Oluremi" is also a Yoruba name.
I am more intrigued by the total lack of any info on her family life and, in particular, her husband. I am assuming that's where the "Bello" comes from? And before anyone raises any questions about that, Bello is a Hausa/Fulani name.
