BREAKING: UK Parliament Grills PM, Theresa May Over Plight Of Igbos In Nigeria by AmadiAba(op): 5:49pm On Sep 15, 2017
Scottish National Party (SNP) MP Kirsty Blackman challenged Prime Minister Theresa May yesterday about human rights threats to Igbos in Nigeria.

The challenge came in the weekly encounter in the UK Parliament known as Prime Minister’s Questions, in which MPs question the PM about government business. Blackman, representing Aberdeen North, asked May: “At the last census, there were 3,000 Aberdonians who said that they were born in Nigeria. Recently, the UN human rights office reported concerns about threats to ​the Igbo people in Nigeria. The Foreign Secretary recently visited the country. Will the Prime Minister tell me what her Government are doing to encourage the communities there to live in peace?”

May replied: “We make efforts across a number of fronts and we are providing support to Nigeria in a variety of ways. As the hon. Lady says, there is a significant diaspora with Nigerian connections and heritage in the United Kingdom. She is right that the Foreign Secretary visited Nigeria. We continue to work with Nigeria. It is important to work with Nigeria on the state of its economy to ensure that communities across Nigeria can feel stability and security for the future”.

PM May was being economical with the truth and being evasive as usual. Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson was in Nigeria for two days at the end of August. There is nothing in the public domain showing that Johnson showed any interest in the country’s human rights record while in Nigeria. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office record of his visit stated:

Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has called for an intensification of...

TruthisOut:
[s]May all who rejoice when others mourn suffer the same fate.
May all who call for genocide of their fellow humans sleep before the fowl.
May all who see no evil just because of tribalism and hate, at what people are suffering - losing love ones and property (sweat) be visited by same fate.
This is not religion, it is the natural order of things. IT MUST HAPPEN TO THEM ALL AS LONG AS GOD LIVES UNLESS YOU REPENT AND CONDEMN THAT WHICH IS EVIL.[/s]
just like saying God should remove your head cos you celebrated kanu when he said he's going to abuja to bring Buhari's head or bring down the zoo.

Question:
At the last census, there were 3,000 Aberdonians who said that they were born in Nigeria. Recently, the UN human rights office reported concerns about threats to ​the Igbo people in northern Nigeria. The Foreign Secretary recently visited the country. Will the Prime Minister tell me what her Government are doing to encourage the communities there to live in peace?”

Answer
May replied: “We make efforts across a number of fronts and we are providing support to Nigeria in a variety of ways. As the hon. Lady says, there is a significant diaspora with Nigerian connections and heritage in the United Kingdom. She is right that the Foreign Secretary visited Nigeria. We continue to work with Nigeria. It is important to work with Nigeria on the state of its economy to ensure that communities across Nigeria can feel stability and security for the future”.





Note

Lots of questions were asked the PM from immigration in the UK, or lack thereof, affecting catering staff in public schools, sepsis treatment, and even matters concerning the oil industry in Scotland and of course the fall out of the Grenfell tower fire incident.

same Britain that gave us Independence? I don't think they can do anything since they have big share in the country they created.

But I will be happy if they can remove the present government.
