his mother is from Anambra though undecided
His surname in the series is even obi and not kabiru.

Shows igbo influence even in the african diaspora.

Hollywood works a certain way.

These days, if you see an African character in a movie, they would most likely have an Igbo name. I suppose it is due to the whole populous black nation thing...... Plus, the US has a higher percentage of Igbo immigrants than immigrants from any other part of Africa, so the likelihood of coming across an Igbo name is high in the US.

As far as music goes in the same Hollywood though, you are more likely to find Yoruba influence than any others.

I think it kind of mirrors the Nigerian entertainment industry to some extent.

After he finalized his divorce from his wife two years ago,he told us he was relocating to the US and there'd be no more project fame. But we suspect he might be seeing someone else who's based there.

Benjamin Joseph can't be an aboki. Abdul, lateef, mustapha and the rest are aboki.

Joseph is from benue state, and as you know, benue state is just unfortunate to be in the north cos the regular man from benue is so different from you - socially, culturally.
