London, United Kingdom – E be like say divide and rule no dey only happen for school playground, as UK Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch don raise eyebrows wey dey reach clouds!
For recent interview wey she do with CNN tori teller, Fareed Zakaria, she talk say her children no go fit get Nigerian citizenship because she na woman. Hmmm, wetin be this? She use the chance to come dey criticize UK immigration policy like say na dem join her for wetin dey happen for Nigerian government. She talk say many immigrants dey exploit UK system, and e go just be like say dem carry dem wahala enter another land wey don dey too soft on immigration matter.
Badenoch, wey be born London girl but her blood dey run Yoruba from her padi parents, make we no forget say she no fit pass am to her children. “E be like say na wahala collect Nigerian citizenship!” she yarn.
But wait! For Section 25(1)(c) of Nigerian Constitution, dem talk say anybody wey born outside Nigeria na citizen by birth if one of their parents na Nigerian. Na so the thing be, no be say gender dey matter here o! Na wah for Kemi-Naija! She don dey marry Hamish, wey get Scottish blood, since 2012 and dem get three pikin together, but hin dey use gender wahala take reason for citizenship matter.
Badenoch continue dey make mouth say UK bases don dey allow people too easy enter their mainland, come dey gift dem citizenship. She dey push for stricter rules like say she fit change am all by herself. “E too easy! Na conveyor belt wey dey share citizenship, we no wan make dem come chop our resources and dey drain our welfare,” she add.
Make dem no say she no get shame, when Zakaria ask her if she fit allow Nigerians to make “mini-Nigerias” for UK, she just smile come pour cold water for anybody wey dey plan am. “No way! Nigerians no go take that one. Na no-no for plenty countries,” she yarn.
As this matter dey hot, e dey shine light for how gender equity get impact for nationality law. E be like say Kemi dey try balance flair for politics, but her statement don cause new gbege for immigration policy. After all na tori wey concern una? Oh, we go just dey watch to see how dis matter go unfold for UK.
