Was Lolo Soetero Shia Muslim

Answer 1

Lolo Soetoro, Barack Obama's stepfather, was undoubtedly a Muslim. Since he is Indonesian, it is overwhelmingly likely that he is a Sunni Muslim, but no statements directly describe his affiliation.

Answer 2

By most accounts, Lolo Soetoro was not very religious. He was most likely a moderate Sunni. Mr. Soetoro was an educated man with a Master's degree in Geography, who seemed completely fine with his step-son Barack attending a Catholic school in Indonesia, and then a public school. Barack Obama has said that his step-father did not impose religion on him, and mainly taught him about Indonesian culture, food, and language.
