[quote author=budaatum post=134098559]A more intelligent survey would first show its her constituency of North West Essex, and then check its not us Labour Party members peddling lies. And no, I can not stand her. ................................................................................ You talk about intelligence, but I don’t see any in your argument, especially in your first post. Speaking off-topic is not a sign of intelligence. Everyone has the right to conduct their own survey, and these are her findings—there’s no need to bring in unnecessary remarks about labour party BS. If you’re seeking attention, feel free to do so without being disingenuous. 🚶🚶🚶 |
Noblechykk:🤷🤷 |
Summary: A recent social experiment revealed that most residents in a key Conservative constituency in the UK do not recognize Kemi Badenoch, the Leader of the Opposition and Conservative Party since 2024. Despite her high-profile status and controversial immigration policies, many people interviewed in a viral TikTok video failed to identify her. This has sparked discussions about her visibility in the UK versus the attention she receives in Nigeria, where she grew up but has distanced herself from in her statements. |
Shocking results emerged when a woman conducted a popularity test on Kemi Badenoch, only to discover that most residents had no idea who she was. Oluwakemi Olufunto Adegoke Badenoch is a British politician who has served as Leader of the Opposition and Leader of the Conservative Party since November 2024. She previously held Cabinet positions under Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak between 2022 and 2024. Since 2017, she has been the Member of Parliament (MP) for North West Essex, formerly known as Saffron Walden. The UK Conservative leader recently sparked outrage among Nigerians on social media after proposing stricter immigration policies, including extending the waiting period for British citizenship to 15 years. In a video posted on Mirror Politics’ TikTok account, a woman approached people on the street, showed them a picture of Kemi Badenoch on her phone, and asked if they recognized her. However, online users were shocked to see that most of those interviewed had no idea who she was. Some even stated they had never seen her face before and couldn’t identify her. This raised questions about why people within her own constituency seemed unaware of her, despite the significant attention she receives in Nigeria due to her repeated statements that appear to distance her from the country where she was raised. Though Kemi Badenoch was born in Wimbledon, UK, she grew up in Nigeria. “I chose to make the United Kingdom my home,” she has said.

Summary: Chatwisa, a 36-year-old woman from Thailand weighing 300kg, was transported to the hospital using a tow truck after experiencing breathing difficulties. Due to her severe obesity, emergency responders had to demolish part of her bedroom wall and remove a door to create an exit. Over 20 personnel carried her custom-made bed onto the tow truck, as a standard ambulance was too small. Chatwisa, who had been bedridden since reaching 270kg last year, shared that she consumed large amounts of food daily and struggled to get medical help due to her weight. Her father expressed concern over her worsening condition. Upon arrival at Somdej Phra Sangkharat Hospital, shocked doctors placed her on oxygen and an IV drip while preparing a recovery plan. |

A man has taken to social media to express his frustration after suspected Fulani herdsmen allegedly destroyed his 20-acre cassava farm in Ijebu Igbo, Ogun State. He shared his ordeal, saying: "I arrived at the farm yesterday only to witness the devastation caused by roaming Fulani herdsmen on our 20-acre cassava plantation. Despite investing heavily in chain-link fencing around the perimeter, these intruders still managed to break in overnight, causing massive destruction. Now, I truly understand why the farmer-herdsmen conflict persists in this country." He further explained that they had just finished harvesting corn from the farm, leaving only the cassava plants to mature. Unfortunately, the herdsmen allegedly invaded the farm overnight and destroyed everything.

Creamypie:Or some bad elements in the Bank. |
Woman in Tears as ₦243K Vanishes 20 Minutes After ATM Seizes Card —Inside Job Suspected? A woman was filmed crying uncontrollably while a crowd watched, refusing to be consoled after the money her husband gave her for shop rent was wiped from her account. According to reports, her bank’s ATM seized her card while she was trying to withdraw cash. She went inside to report the issue to the bank staff, but they told her to return the following Monday to retrieve it. However, just 20 minutes later, over ₦240,000 was withdrawn from her account via a POS terminal. The question is, who is behind the withdrawal, considering that her ATM card was still stuck in the machine? Obviously, someone must have gained access to the card. Since this happened within just 20 minutes of her card getting stuck, it is safe to assume that the person behind the withdrawal is an insider at the bank, possibly using a POS machine located inside the bank or within its premises. What are your thoughts on this? Please drop your advice in the comments! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jg0u1_Rac8?si=X7g2-bJute04h72A

A petrol tanker overturned near the Army Barracks in Onitsha yesterday, and people were seen scooping fuel from the fallen vehicle. Despite numerous past incidents where explosions have claimed many lives in similar situations, some Nigerians seem not to have learned from these tragedies. It is heartbreaking that people continue to engage in such a dangerous act. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaKj_4r3too?si=ZmBETTqJR96ZwiqV

Summary: Texas Representative Files Impeachment Articles Against Trump Over Gaza Plan Democratic Representative Al Green plans to file articles of impeachment against Donald Trump, condemning his proposal for the U.S. to "take over" Gaza after resettling Palestinians elsewhere. Green called the plan a "dastardly deed" and accused Trump of supporting ethnic cleansing. Trump’s remarks sparked backlash, but his impeachment remains unlikely, as it lacks broad Democratic support and faces Republican control in Congress. |
Democratic Representative Al Green has announced his intention to file articles of impeachment against former President Donald Trump, condemning Trump's recent statements about Gaza as actions that "will live in infamy." Speaking on the House floor, Green described Trump’s proposal regarding Gaza as "dastardly deeds proposed and dastardly deeds done." During a press conference alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump suggested that the United States should "take over" Gaza and transform it into the "Riviera of the Middle East" after relocating the Palestinian population elsewhere. However, he did not clarify what legal or political authority the U.S. would use to assume control over the region or how it would displace the approximately 1.8 million Palestinians still residing there. Trump’s remarks were met with immediate backlash, with critics accusing him of advocating ethnic cleansing. His statements also raised concerns about potential disruptions to ongoing negotiations aimed at prolonging the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hamas following over 15 months of conflict. On Thursday, while appearing on C-SPAN, Green expressed strong disapproval of both Trump and Netanyahu’s comments, stating, "The president and the prime minister, what they said will live in infamy, and I don't know that they'll recover from it." He further asserted, "Quite frankly, if I may say this, I think the president, that alone in my world would cause him to have to resign." Green, who previously attempted multiple times to impeach Trump during his presidency, emphasized that impeachment does not necessarily require a statutory crime. Citing the U.S. Constitution, he pointed out that Congress has the authority to impeach and remove a president for "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors." According to Green, the term "misdemeanor" encompasses misdeeds that could "shock the conscience," making it a valid basis for impeachment. Impeachment serves as one of Congress’s most significant checks on executive power. Trump was impeached twice during his first term, though the Senate acquitted him on both occasions. There is no constitutional limit to how many times a president can be impeached. Trump, reaffirming his stance on Tuesday, stated, "The U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too." He added, "I do see a long-term ownership position, and I see it bringing great stability to that part of the Middle East and maybe the entire Middle East." On Wednesday, Green officially declared on the House floor, "The movement to impeach the president has begun." Meanwhile, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed Trump’s proposal during a briefing, describing it as "an out-of-the-box idea." She defended Trump's approach, stating, "That's who President Trump is, that's why the American people elected him, and his goal is lasting peace in the Middle East for all people in the region." However, within the Democratic Party, there was little indication that Green’s impeachment efforts had widespread support. When asked about Green’s initiative, Democratic Representative Pete Aguilar remarked, "This isn't a focus of the Democratic Caucus." Democratic Representative Rashida Tlaib, a Palestinian American member of Congress, also voiced her outrage, posting on X (formerly Twitter), "Palestinians aren't going anywhere. This president can only spew this fanatical bull**** because of bipartisan support in Congress for funding genocide and ethnic cleansing. It's time for my two-state solution colleagues to speak up." Despite Green’s impeachment push, the political reality remains challenging. With Republicans holding a slim majority in both the House and Senate, it is highly unlikely that any impeachment effort against Trump will advance.

Kemi Badenoch, in a press release, stated: "Britain is our home. It's not a hotel. It's time to tell the truth on immigration and propose real plans to do something about it. I want to reduce immigration and make living here actually mean something. We need to change the way our immigration system works. So I'm announcing that the Conservative Party is going to do the following things differently: One, if you want to stay in our country permanently and apply for indefinite leave to remain, the time you have to live here before you apply will increase from five years to ten years. Two, you will have to be a net contributor with a high enough salary, especially if you want to bring family members with you. And if you've got a criminal record, you're banned. Three, if you've claimed benefits or need social housing, you can't even apply. Four, we will increase the time before you can apply for a British passport from twelve months to five years. Meaning, it will take a minimum of fifteen years to start an application. Five, if you enter this country illegally or outstay your visa, you'll be banned from ever gaining legal remain or a passport. These changes, on top of a strict numerical cap on numbers, will constitute the most robust changes ever made to our immigration system. Lower numbers, secure borders, and an integration system that finally works for the British people. This is another step in our plan to control our immigration system. If you agree, join us, and let's get it done." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIV6QxE2Ajc?si=743gCnh_dA6jG3Re

Summary: "South African President to Trump: 'Stay Out of Our Issues!'" On Monday, the South African president criticized Donald Trump, stating that Trump has never been to South Africa and should focus on his own country. He accused Trump’s forefathers of wiping out indigenous Americans and emphasized that South Africans—both black and white—will resolve their land issues without interference. He urged Trump to stay out of South Africa’s affairs, reminding him that he was not involved in the fight against apartheid. "We will find solutions to our problems. Stay out of our issues and leave us alone!" |

A statement from Pretoria came after Trump, on Sunday, threatened to cut future funding to South Africa over alleged land confiscation and the mistreatment of "certain classes of people." "South Africa is confiscating land and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY. It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t even want to mention. A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see," he said on his Truth Social platform. Trump’s outburst came after South African President Cyril Ramaphosa signed the Expropriation Bill into law last month, replacing the pre-democratic Expropriation Act of 1975. The new legislation outlines the process by which state entities can expropriate land in the public interest for various purposes. Trump stated that the U.S. would halt all funding to the country until a thorough investigation into the matter was completed. However, Ramaphosa emphasized that South Africa is a "constitutional democracy deeply rooted in the rule of law, justice, and equality." He clarified that the only funding South Africa receives from the U.S. is for HIV/AIDS prevention. “There is no other funding that South Africa receives from the United States.” On Monday, while speaking, the South African president said: "This issue that Trump fears so much—we offered this portion of the land. I don't know what Donald Trump wants to do with South African land because he has never been here. He should keep his America, and we will keep our South Africa. South Africa is our land; it belongs to all the people who live here, not to Donald Trump. He can keep his America. He is even worse. When I meet him, I will tell him: Donald Trump, you are even worse because your forefathers came to America, found the indigenous Americans, wiped them out, and killed nearly all of them. Now, as black and white South Africans, we are going to find solutions to our land issues. Donald Trump must leave us alone. He must stay out of our affairs because when we were facing apartheid and oppression, he was not here. He didn't fight side by side with us. Yet, on our own—yes, with the support of progressive forces around the world—we were able to resolve all apartheid-related issues. Donald Trump was nowhere near the negotiating table, so he should sit in his White House while we mind our business here. We will find solutions to our problems, so stay out of our issues. We will not interfere in America’s problems, so leave us alone!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89G0-59IIoM?si=_mJSq1CE1HLlc2gL
