WHEN IT IS SYNONYMOUS WITH NAIJA OR NIGERIAN THE BRITS ALWAYS PREFER TO LABEL IT COLOURFULLY TO THE TARGET COUNTRY.

Blame Nigerian newspapers for that colourful twist.
As far as I can tell, none of the leading British newspapers described her as anything other than an 'MP'.

The lady that actually committed the crime gets 3 months jail time and her brother (the male), who was only an accomplice, gets 10 months.

We still got a long way to go to gender equality.

Its not about gender equality.

Sometimes aiding and abetting or helping to cover up a crime is taken very seriously.

The goat thought she is in Nigeria where an offence as grievous as "forgetting" to declare as much as 1bn is committed by the judge of a supreme court and his fellow criminals are taking to the streets to protest the sanctioning of the "forgetful" judge.
or even with president that claimed he lost his school certificate is been praised by useless hungry people, a president that still call Germany western Germany ,my brother no mind them

So she is Nigerian-born now? If she won the Nobel prize she would simply be known as a Briton.

I've been following this story.

These people think they are in Nigeria, where they can lie and get away with anything. MP or no MP. No one is above the law in the UK. She has just ruined her political career. I learnt she was a very dedicated MP. What a shame.
A second Nigerian MP there too is in hot water. Using her psition to try and influence a judge's decision
Re: Fiona Onasanya Jailed For Three Months For Lying by Originalsly: 6:11pm On Jan 29, 2019
Hmmm....if she lies about common speeding ticket.....that even the judge sentencing her maybe had a few..... what would she not lie about? They still be investigating her.

They are carrying placards becausethe president in question is a thief himself so is his entire entourage

Gaduje a thief collecting bribe was clearly caught on camera which is undisputable evidence in any court in the world and the stupid president ignored this but suddenly wants to remove the CJ?

That's absurd

Last year Mr Dapo Apara presented undisputable evidence showing that tinubu has been using a company named Alphabeta LLP to launder money from Lagos State accounts for over a decade yet nothing was done

I could go on and on showing clear cases where undisputable evidence was presented to this government about their allies being clearly indicted in corrupt practices yet they where ignored and suddenly he wants to remove the chief justice?

Please we are not stupid , if he is sincere there is a huge backlog of cases he can start from till he gets to this chief justice

This is why they carry placards .. so only a stupid person would fault that

This can never happen to any lawmaker in Nigeria...once you'r a political office holder (either elected/appointment, especially if you belong to the present party <APC>) you can break rules, laws and orders without being prosecute

A Nigerian-born British lawmaker Fiona Onasanya , has been jailed for three months for lying following an investigation by the police. 

The expelled Labour MP who was found guilty of perverting the course of justice after a retrial in December, was texting as she was speeding on the evening on 24 July 2017. She was clocked driving at 41mph in a 30mph zone in Thorney, near Peterborough.

Nigerian-born British lawmaker who colluded with her brother to avoid the ticket, will however not be losing her job even though a recall petition could force a by-election in her constituency, if signed by 10% of her electorate. Her brother who she colluded with to avoid the ticket, was jailed for 10 months for his involvement after pleading guilty to the same charge. It was learnt that the driver of the car she named, was in Russia at the time of the offence.

What an embarrassment - had to be Naija with their stupid lies. Silly woman said she will appeal and said the law is unjust and treating her like Jesus and Moses. Shows you her level of arrogance and delusion
it's not a Nigerian thing actually.


In UK people get points for traffic offences once you reach a certain point you lose it license and when people get caught they mostly lie another person ( who is low on point) is on the wheels to avoid a ban. Since most speeding offences were captured by cameras



People do it all the time

Should have just admitted it and paid the ticket, like £50 or somethting

Instead it’s prison sentence and end of political career

Maybe she forgot she’s in the UK and not Naija
I tell you! i have been caught numerous times all i did was paid them their bloody 60 quid! a high profile Individual like her. and to try to pin the crime on an innocent man was Disgusting.

Dumb woman, for a meagre fine of £60 she could have paid, now she just lost her £85000 a year job. Typical Nigeria mentality.

Take it easy, this is the BBC report and doesn't say Nigerian. The link used by this post is from a Nigerian blog or something.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-47040912

She was very silly tbh. The most she would get was points on her licence and a fine, worse case some negative media coverage for a day or two yet she lied, got her brother to lie and destroyed her political career in the process with criminal record for both her and her brother.

...chai...this young lady finished her political career just because she's dishonest...the speeding offence is very minimal...it only carries 3 points on driving licence for 4 years and £100 fine...also she might be suspended from being a solicitor by the UK Solicitors Regulation Authority...

British born means born in Britain. It has no other meaning. If she was born in Nigeria, not even winning a Nobel Prize would make the British refer to her as British born.
