London, Jan 17: US President-elect Barack Obama's stepmum has decided to stay in Britain- as she loves bingo and roast beef.

Kezia Obama, who was married to the Barack's Kenya-born dad, has been living in the UK for seven years in a council house in Bracknell, Berkshire.

She will formally apply for British citizenship when she returns from his inauguration in Washington.

"I love the English way of life," The Sun quoted her as saying.

"There's nothing quite like a British Sunday lunch. Then there's my craze for bingo," she added. (ANI)
