Don't model any Nigerian politician especially Obasanjo and Tinubu

NATIONAL Health Service (NHS) manager Kate Osamor has become the fourth Nigerian-born elected member of the British House of Commons after being elected as the MP for Edmonton in north London yesterday. Representing the Labour Party who had a generally bad night across the country, Ms Osamor was declared the winner in the north London seat with 25,388 votes. Her closest rival, Gonul Daniels of the Conservative Party ended up with 9,969 votes, making it a comfortable win for Ms Osamor.

She now joins fellow Labour MPs Chi Onwurah representing Newcastle Central, who was returned with 19,301 votes and Chuka Umunna who was returned in Streatham with 26,474 votes. Helen Grant, the sole Nigerian MP in the Conservative Party is still awaiting the results of her election in Maidstone and the Weald. Ms Osamor, who has worked for the NHS for 15 years, is a trade union activist, a women's charity trustee and a member of the Labour Party's National Executive Committee. Martha Osamor, Ms Osamor's mother is a former Haringey councillor.

In February this year, Ms Osamor was selected as the Labour Party's parliamentary candidate for the Edmonton constituency after stiff contest with fellow Nigerian diasporan Kate Anolue. She made funding the NHS, opposing its fragmentation and standing up to government cuts the centrepiece of her campaign. Despite this victory for the Labour Party in Edmonton, nationwide, the party appears to have had a disastrous result. It is expected to lose about 50 seats in Scotland alone to the Scottish National Party, who now have 56 members of parliament and in England, has made zero net gains against the Conservative Party.

Prime minister David Cameron looks set to be return to Downing Street with a working majority this time as his coalition partners the Liberal Democrats got more or less obliterated. Leading Liberal Democrats like Danny Alexander, Vince Cable, Simon Hughes and Charles Kennedy all lost their seats in what was a disastrous night for the party.

Forget the name and follow the fact, she's not a Nigerian. Our Constitution does not permit dual citizenship.

Meanwhile somewhere in a jungle nation in west Africa, a frog eyed cretin like governor who was just recently (s)elected to the senate ordered the sack of all non-indigenes from his state's civil service. The sacked workers included his fellow tribesmen from neighbouring states and even people married to indigenes of his state. Even the long serving civil servants who started working before the state was split into two were sacked and asked to go to their new state's civil service.

And at the end of the day, some 'smart' fellow comes to tell me the problem of the SE is Yoruba or Awusa.

Mr Trailblazer quit this overflogged issue. Do you know it's easier for a camel to pass through the eyes of a needle than for a non Ibo to be a common market trader association chairman in Ochanja, Ogbete and Aba markets? The Igbos have a fairer deal outside than they have given to others in their own land even in the same Lagos. The Lagos issue was to me an unfortunate one off incidence which many wants to capitalize on for political gains.

PDPmamapiss:


when will Hausa man or yoruba man or urhobo man or Edo man be allowed to contest election across the East of Niger?
Hausa man born in my town won councilor 1999.
Igbo men always contest elections in Lagos and Abuja.....

I THINK IS GOOD FOR IGBOS TO ENCOURAGE FOREIGNERS IN THEIR POLITICS EITHER BY ELECTION OR APPOINTMENT TO ENHANCE INTEGRATION AND 1-NIGERIA.
SE is the only zone with 100% Indigen running their politics since 1960.

You are lying Mr Phillips. The issue is there no non-Igbo traders in those markets and not that they are not allowed to become leaders
