She's Yoruba when it is convenient for you other times she doesn't want anything to do with Yoruba.
Why don't you leave tribalism alone for a moment and see the overall importance or lack of it of what is being discussed?
She never said she didn't want anything to do with Yoruba o! She always identified with her Yoruba ancestry.
Mrs Badenoch said she preferred to be known as a Yoruba than be linked to the country Nigeria.....BIG DIFFERENCE!

I think Labour under PM Starmer has been a phenominal failure and I pray the Conservatives give them a thorough thrashing in the next elections.

I know, I was referring to people who call her Yoruba when it fits their narrative and call her anti Yoruba when it suits them.

Probably you need to go and read your history books again.
Wars were fought to capture slaves, raids, children separated from their parents, a whole family captured and sold into slavery. Human were sold in exchange for drinks, mirror, salt weapons etc.
Pay a visit to Gore Island, Senegal and visit the Gate of no return and you will better appreciate the evil of slavery.
So stop commenting on what you little or nothing about

The trans- Saharan slave trade that resulted as a spread of Arabic-Islamic influence through North Africa and the trans atlantic slave trade that came up as a result of the Portuguese merchants entering West Africa.., all of these would not have been possible if there wasn’t an already existing form of slave trade going on in Africa.
Kingdoms conquered other kingdoms. Villages conquered other villages and took men and women captive, sold the men off and use the women for pleasure.
It even got worse when gunpowder arrived in Africa. African kings sold their own black brothers to the Europeans for gunpowder and other crazy inventions , in order to stay powerful and dominant.

But Ethiopia was different because of a leader like Emperor Menelik II, who oriented kingdoms under him against disunity. Purchased artilleries from Europe and trained about over 100k soldiers to defend their homeland. Reason why Ethiopia was never colonized: one mindedness and unity.
Go and read on the battle of Adwa and how the Treaty of Addis Ababa came up.

For almost every slave traded in Africa to the Europeans, was a black slave master who brokered the deal.

Own up to your flaws and put yourself together. That’s the first step in self development. Not go about, trading blames

If there's no demand there would be no supply, moreover not everyone sold slaves just a few retard ones.
Oh really!

Have you ever come across the tag “Not for sale”?
Does it cross your mind that some things are priceless but the moment you attach monetary value to them they lose their authentic value??

Must you always sell because there is a buyer?
How do you define value?

Kemi if you have to sell your soul to speak up against the right thing then you are in the wrong place. You have no right to speak on this, you are not Nigerian or African and neither are you a descendant of the enslaved.

Reacting to the development, Badenoch wrote, “Russia, China and Iran vote with others to demand trillions in reparations from UK taxpayers…and the Labour government abstain!”

The United Nations General Assembly has voted to recognise the slave trade as "the gravest crime against humanity", a move advocates hope will pave the way for healing and justice.⁣

The resolution - proposed by Ghana - called for this designation, while also urging UN member states to consider apologising for the slave trade and contributing to a reparations fund. It does not mention a specific amount of money.⁣

The proposal was adopted with 123 votes in favour and three against - the United States, Israel and Argentina.⁣

Fifty-two countries abstained, including the United Kingdom and European Union member states.⁣

Countries like the UK have long rejected paying reparations, saying today's institutions cannot be held responsible for past wrongs.

A question was asked and no answer. Who will be the beneficiaries? Government or families whose children were sold to slavery.

Who will pay? Business involves seller and buyer. Africans sold their people and white people bought it. So the buyer and seller should pay if the motion will ever become a reality.


Corrupt black african presidents salivating to loot the trillions will wait for 1 trillion light years cos that ain't gonna happen. No compensation will be paid.
yes oh I love the question and it was directed to Africa

Still doesn't change the fact that Africans were the ones capturing and selling the slaves.

Please don't go and say this thing you said outside again.

You seriously want to blame black Americans, whose ancestors were brought as slaves 400 yesrs ago for their own slavery?

Obviously you are listening to media controlled by white supremacists. Either that, or like Kemi, you have a colonized mentality.
My comment represents the views of some the oldest people in villages on slavery and you are here writing nonsense about the media. Who told you I was referring to the media?

The slave capture you are describing here was mostly predominant in the old America lands. Slavery in Nigeria was mostly organised

Which people in the village are blaming Black Americans for their own slavery? If you like go and repeat this outside your village.
