She is listed as Ghanaian-British on the mixis website. Nkrumah is a Ghanaian surname (think: first President of Ghana) so my guess is that Opal is Ghanaian not Nigerian.

Think non-poser Barbie legs. Also, only the Sunset Edition dolls have jointed elbows. The Limited Edition Emerald, Opal, and Rosa have straight arms. Houda is only available as a Sunset Edition doll so ALL Houdas will have jointed elbows. I like how you included the dolls' full names and ethnic backgrounds in your post.
