Her parents were lecturers in UNILAG where Kemi spent her formative years even went to the secondary school within the campus called ISL.

I would buy her sob story if she said she was dodging bullets from cultists but treaking miles to fetch water in UNILAG? Na mate.

Theflint1:
Lecturers no really begin flex until OBJ era enter...those Abacha time dem, they were just okay. If you've read the book Purple Hibiscus, you'd see a perfect description of what life was like for lecturers in that era, not poor, but far from comfortable, more lower middleclass with the respect of their status...and I don't think UNILAG would have been exempt from the unstable power and water supply that rocked that era.

GloriousGbola:
i believe lecturers in unilag were doing well. at least i knew one chick back in uni whose dad was dean in unilag and she was def comfortable /tu-sh. and i my memort serves ISL was a very very fancy school at the time

Lol I don't have time for those kind of politics these days. My own concern is to try and be the next rung of the ladder for my family's social mobility.

Cos ultimately the aim of the game is to do better than my father and have my kids do better than me. I'm currently trying to save enough to send my kids to ths same private school my wife and brother in law attended, but schoolfees is 25k per academic year. If the 2nd one joins, we get a discount of 3k per student per year.

It would mean giving up a lot of the lifestyle touches I'm used to but that's the sacrifice my father made for me, and that's the sacrifice I want to try and make for my kids, cos ultimately in this particular country breeding and networking is absolutely everything... Hence the success of so many brown and black people in the Conservative Party

As in.... most of the things the lady said are actually relatable even for those that grew in the late 90's /early 2000's.

There were instances when NEPA would seize light for almost 2 weeks and u will have to go few kilometers away to fetch water either in another area where they have light or one rich man in the area who owns a "plant"(Those industrial generators) and decides to pump water for the whole community. At least I know almost everybody experienced this once in their childhood.

Almost everyone used lantern/candle to do assignment at one point in this country. Whether na inside Unilag ur parents live or inside OAU, na everybody dey experience power outage in this country.

Around January 1995, Or "transformer blow". It was about 2 days before we played the King Fahd tournament in Saudi and we didnt get another transformer till about May 1995. So about 6 months of darkness, There was even no generator. So na full time lantern, candle and Atupa(kerosene in bottle then attack a wick to it)

while cooking with sawdust abacha stove, charcoal

I don even forget this scenario sef, e get how dem go take light tey reach, even those houses wey near us, go stop dey sell, prioritize their personal use, and we'd have to go even farther than normal to get places that have water, and the distance to and fro go dey reach those 1KM Kemi talk.

During covid, I met with a white lady. and she was complaining about using mask and if I don't mind her taking off her mask

I told her that if you want to take it off then thats fine. That you will probably get affected more than me. I told her that I have been through shitty situations I have drank water that I couldnt see the bottom of the cup you have never drank bad water, I have lived without light you havent. I have suffered diseases you didnt

I told her when the debate is about chloroquine, That I have taken chloroquine almost 100 times in my life and you havent taken it once

If you want to put it down, I have a higher inbuilt immunity than you and is not about race, My kids fall into the same bucket, I have higher immunity than any kid born in America

The bold sounds like I am shittting on Nigeria yes or No?

GloriousGbola:
Were you telling the lady this in a personal capacity? Talking with people one on one about difficulties in your hike country is different from jumping on a pulpit to announce to people I am from a useless place because that will make you appeal to the majority

When you went for your visa or job or green card air citizenship interviews is that your strategy?

Do you see second or first generation congressmen saying vote for me because I am using this platform as a pulpit to condemn everything about my country of origin?

If you were running for a political post is that what you would use as your shtick? I grew up in a shithole country where nothing worked. I had to walk to the office everyday. Everynight cultists broke bottle on my head. Vote for me because I condemn everything about the terrible country of my origin. It is the worst place on earth and it is cursed.

Olowunl01:
Chairman, you are making it out more than it is, it's not like it's something she would bring up on campaign stumps, like shitting on Nigeria to get her elected, Nigeria is more of an albatross, not a story she is eager to tell, na Madam Abike go find famsing.

Afterall, our former 001 told the whole British system we are a country of lazy youths, and when they called us fantastically corrupt - he gleefully accepted.

Google kemi Badenoch speeches. That is exactly what she is doing. This is not a one off. This is not casual talk. This is not your college admission essay where you talk about life experience.

This is a black woman getting into a white club by punching down on her roots.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Sorry sir

But did you at any point know Kemi and asked her out? Is she an ex?

Because this your anger don pass the normal threshold [/color]

Donald trump planning to end birthright citizenship?

popizaino:
And that's the difference between you and her. She won't see all of this experiences as a cause for celebrations of perseverance but as an abnormalities that should be called out the way it is.


Call me a coon or whatever i will not live in denial of our realities,nigeria is a bad product and its obvious to every honest observer and if given the same opportunity as kemi,i will say it as it is.

This is what I am talking about. She does not have to say those things. But she is playing to white gallery

The more you Google her, the more you will see. She is a colonialism apologist. It would be easier to keep quiet as no one is asking her these questions. This is her chosen identity

GloriousGbola is to Kemi as Blueraydick is to Dangote, as Raumdeuter is to Peter Obi and Izzou is to Kwankwaso.
