Huh? His name is Yoruba.
Oh, and Ibadan is in the heart of Yorubaland, the political capital of the chief Yoruba state.
I wrote Hausa-Fulani because his father is said to be of that tribe. I don’t know much about Nigerian surnames, but if you say it’s Yoruba, then sure.
Considering his parents are Christian, I’d say the chance of him being Hausa is minimal.
