Who is asking her for PR? If the only way she can describe her country is with lies and exaggerations then she should shut her mouth. Former England prime minister Rishi Sunak and current mayor of London Sadiq Khan never dispareged their countries of origin to earn political points despite the fact that the whole world knows that India and Pakistan are neighbouring corrupt shithole countries.

Winnin009:
Lol... I get your point... Chat GPT tried it's best too... meanwhile, let me ask you a simple question that I deduced from your write up; you make it seem like she talks about Nigeria every time she opens her mouth which we both know isn't true; so to my question... What statement(s) has she made other that the obvious disassociation of her using Nigeria to cover her lapses; if you have an article or video, I would love that.

Flangelo12:
Guaranteed, she would never be prime minister of Great Britain.

If the people are unhappy with Labour, they would rather vote Nigel Farage and his Reform Party.

Nigerians aren't deep thinkers, I'm sorry to say.

Jmertin:
How comfortable is she feeling here.

malali:

If you watch her talk, I do a lot of public speaking myself. She doesn't have the dexterity of presenting actual solutions, with practicality in ease of application. She rambles about the problems, which everyone knows and then connects them to immigration being the sole cause of these problems.
She runs into an issue she is better off not talking about because she doesn't have the know how, "she mentions she wants a better Britain for British" failing to recognize that if all the immigrants from Africa and India quit the NHS today. There will be no Healthcare in Britain. As a world leader in that position she fails to demonstrate maturity and wisdom in presenting her solutions without denigrating Nigerians, Africans and Immigrants of which she is a beneficiary of Immigration.
The deprecating self hate is what irks me all the time.

If Kemi Badenoch can give a 1 hour speech without mentioning immigration. I will donate $10,000 to any charity of your choice.

Winnin009:
India's population is more than 5times our own but we have more poor people than them... It's safe to say the Indian government are doing well enough to be spared the criticism.

UltraSolid:
God bless you. I just said same above. She is one of the new wave of vacuously populist politician who are niche-useful, I.e black and anti-immigration in this case, meaning the message can sail through without accusation of racism, yet she remains ultimately shallow and administratively inept.

Establishment use them to retain power and they use establishment to gain power. This is why the UK is on a downward spiral from the morally bankrupt Boris Johnson and continuing through opportunist airheads like Kemi.

“This is my country. I don’t want it to become like the place I ran away from,” she said.

Maxymilliano:
Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the United Kingdom (UK) Conservative Party, says she is not interested in laundering the image of Nigeria after Vice-President Kashim Shettima criticised her for denigrating the country.

Badenoch was born in the UK in 1980 to Nigerian Yoruba parents. She returned to Nigeria, where she grew up. Badenoch finally departed for the UK when she turned 16.

Before she was elected leader of the Conservative Party, Badenoch described Nigeria as a socialist nation brimming with thieving politicians and insecurity.

“This is my country. I don’t want it to become like the place I ran away from,” she said.

"I grew up in Nigeria, and I saw firsthand what happens when politicians are in it for themselves, when they use public money as their private piggy banks, when they pollute the whole political atmosphere with their failure to serve others.

“I saw what socialism is for millions. I saw poverty and broken dreams. I came to Britain to make my way in a country where hard work and honest endeavour can take you anywhere.”

Badenoch also said she “grew up in a place where fear was everywhere. You cannot understand it unless you’ve lived it. Triple-checking that all the doors and windows are locked, waking up in the night at every sound, listening as you hear your neighbours scream as they are being burgled and beaten, wondering if your home would be next”.

On Monday, Vice-President Kashim Shettima hit back at Badenoch, accusing her of denigrating Nigeria.

Shettima compared Badenoch to Rishi Sunak, a “brilliant young man” who “never denigrated his nation of ancestry”.

Former Prime Minister Sunak hails from India.

However, a spokesperson for Badenoch said the politician stood by her statement.

“Kemi is not interested in doing Nigeria’s PR; she is the leader of the opposition in the UK,” the spokesperson said.

“She tells the truth. She tells it like it is. She’s not going to couch her words, and she stands by what she says.”

Shettima had urged Badenoch to change her first name if she no longer wanted to identify with her homeland.

Born Olukemi Adegoke to Nigerian parents, the lawmaker married Hamish Badenoch, a Scottish banker, and took her husband’s surname.

ClearFlair:
Some people hate the truth.

SmartPolician:
To everyone criticizing Kemi, just know that she has every right to be worried that this deception called a country has gone on for over a century and that she knows she would never have gotten to the level she is today if she hadn't escaped from this sick country.

seunlayi:
I just loved this Kemi, she is absolutely right with her decision for avoiding her garment to be stained by our politicians. She has experienced what Nigeria is and what UK is........ She was here in Ibadan few months ago, I saw her interacting with people.....I heard her on a local station complaining bitterly about the state of the road leading to her home in Ibadan...... Now, Shittyman and Abike Dagboru want to engage her in PR, she refused and you start painting her black. Tinubu just said yesterday that his reforms are working, Kemi has first hand info of what's is on ground here, you want her to start supporting those lies? Sincerely, even as a Christian, I will do more than she is doing if I have this opportunity.

Gbenga Daniel once said during one of his birthday celebration when in office that the greatest regret he had in life is joining Nigeria politics "where you have to tell lies and the person you are talking to knows it's a lie and the 2 of you will aggreed and take it to be the truth". Kemi is not ready for this

Avoid Nigeria politicians

AqualinaXYZ:

SalamRushdie:
She shouldn't even have replied the man

Useless Nigerian politicians will will wreck the country and then expect people to hide their rubbish for them , does the VP think Kemi Badenoch is Helinues

jmoore:
'Thieving politicians and insecurity', what is wrong with that statement?

Timlubu babablu vultures always attack the truth.

Mirasteel:
Who will be interested to talk good about an hellhole like Nigeria?

elipheleh:
Who wants to associate with Tinubu government that engineered the following:

worst economic hardship,

Most neglected security and lack of infrastructures in essential sectors,

appointment of controversial figures (thieves),

stifling dissent and election rigging,

and failing to deliver meaningful reforms

or address the needs of ordinary Nigerians

?

bjdon:
Shettima is a big goat. He thinks Nigerians abroad are like the meek ass kissers he has back home. Kemi takes no crap from anyone. She's an example of what all Nigerians could be in the right environment. Shettima should cover his big head in shame, going around shouting Nigeria is the greatest black nation, when we can't even generate a 10th of electricity SA generates.
