tpiander:
it's possible, seems one of his grandfather's titles was "white son", according to wiki.

His lips also look thin to me, plus he was light skinned. Although as he aged, he darkened a bit.

There are Esan people who are fair and 100% Esan/African. The Portuguese influence only has a minimal effect in the complexion. Also, another thing that aggravates me is when some Igbos claim that intermarriage/intermixing between Esan and Igbo causes the fair skin in Esans.
