Av listened to her, there's nothing to celebrate about her! She's disconnected and dissociated herself from Nigeria & Africa!

It's just stupidity for obi to be talking about her! This is the beginning of our issues! We value what don't value us!

BBC and British is taking serious efforts to shut out Africans and migrants wether legal or illegal and this guy is sending unsolicited greetings! Rather than wait n observe

Omoluabis don't make noise. They are born to be silent achievers without bragging.

Please stop making noise,thanks

Kemi is not British...yet they elected her to head the Conservative party ... but her tribe here in Nigeria will not even allow another tribe to vote for their choice if its not from their tribe .. imagine if British people rejected her for this ... yorubas are the tribalistic people on earth

Justiceleague1:

Shattap and hide ya heads in shame...you all were attacking this same woman some not too long ago including FFK for saying some truth about Nigeria...shame

He be like say head dey pain you. Did you read my comment at all?

Tomorrow now they will call igbos trbe full of hatred, but deep inside eveey yoruba heart, are full of envy hatred evil over igbos as if igbos made their forefathers get watery sperms wey gave birth to tribes who are lazy to compete with strong almighty igbos in their backyard...

10mobile:
Good.
Just look at this bunch of low lives up here👆

See a beautiful write-up with so many golden nuggets, but you didn't respond to even one of them. Instead, you started pouring out the dirty toilet inside you! The rate at which Nigerians reject good things and still turn around to complain against the evil they support, is beyond alarming!

By the way, is it Obi that writes his own tweets? Whoever writes his tweets deserves a global award.

I hope this man eventually gets over his defeat.
That term 'emilokan' was not used by PBAT to show entitlement towards the Presidency. So it's not worth giving so much attention.

Clown chasing attention as usual.
The clown 🤡 knows that Reno will expose his hypocrisy as usual.

DamnnNiggarr:

Peter Obi

She wasn't born in Nigeria.

She absolutely believes in nothing except that which can help her move up in her Party, regardless of who is trampled upon. I guess she and Peter Obi have that in common.

Also Kẹmi doesn't believe in diversity and identifies and is more representative of white extremists.

Peter Obi has goofed on this.

A global award for ignoring the issues of direct concern to Pandora Bitter Obi’s constituents

Yigbos no go like this

Oga be calming down with your fake intellectualism. Britain is a homogeneous society so their laws are designed as a consequence.

yarimo:
Peter OBI just scared of RENO OMOKRI not to tackle him , that is why OBI congratulate her in time thank you Comrade RENO OMOKRI

Obi had no choice than to congratulate her. Not bcoz he's excited to do it, but bcoz he needed to further his failed gospel of a better Nigeria is possible, hypocrisy, pretentious style, and public sympathy.

ALTERNATEID:
Kemi deserves all the accolades. What she achieved yesterday would have been thought impossible for a black woman barely 10 years ago. She represents the exceptionalism of Yoruba women. Congratulations to her once again.

I just dey laugh you Nigerians and your "celebrations" over this ladys' victory

Are you not aware of the history of her political party with those with your skin colour?Or her past utterances about Nigeria and black people in general in the UK?


All of you should prepare yourselves to get talked down to by this Kemi lady because she clearly does not see herself as one of you.

ALTERNATEID:
She represents the exceptionalism of Yoruba women. Congratulations to her once again.

Nothing exceptional in being an unprincipled person.

She has Yoruba ancestry and that's where it ends for her link to Ndi Yoruba .

If Igbos are not the laziest of lazy people then why have they failed to develop their own region for others to live in and compete in their backyard

Btruth:
Congratulations to her. A proud to Nigeria and to Africa as a whole.

We are proud of you Kemi.

She is not proud Nigerian anything.

She is a coconut and her cooning will end in tears.

Minister of Congratulations and Mourners Association of Nigeria.

Obidient will soon claim they made her the conservative leader

Obi you and your people are religious Bigot

I saw this from a mile away

Congrats, keep up the good work

I know you are not happy
I know you deep down

For your last paragraph, it's not the BBC and British, it's idiots like Kẹmi winding the locals up needlessly in order to further her political career.

For the hard of hearing, this poster is right in that Kẹmi is targeting legal immigrants too.

But you people voted your choice and Peter Obi won in Lagos state, must you rewrite history.

kemi is ambitious bt is ambition enough to lead? Time will tell.

Finquas:
Kemi will become the next British prime minister of color

And this will automatically make Yoruba land, Nigeria and all black Africans like British citizens who have free basic education, free basic healthcare, 24/7 electricity and water etc?

Or what else will be the direct impact?

I want to sell a script to a Hollywood studio. The story is about a guy who owns a farm that constantly runs at a loss but never quite shuts down.

The farm is massive and underutilised, and the protagonist has all the opportunities in the world to improve its output and get a bumper harvest.

He has access to credit, machinery, free irrigation and gifts from neighbouring farmers, but all he ever does with these things is drink and smoke them away while his family suffers.

Nigeria has refused to grow up and achieve something, but it somehow feels as if it is living vicariously through the achievements of its estranged children around the world

Apart from drinking, smoking and generally being utterly useless, his other pastime is to pump out children at an industrial rate. Needless to say, he takes no care of his children whatsoever, and many of them fail to survive childhood.

Those who do survive have to leave the farm and hire themselves out as hired labour to the neighbouring farmers, having picked up some survival skills from home.

With time, a number of them rise through the ranks and become senior managers, directors and even shareholders in these other farms while their father continues mismanaging his farm.

When good news about some of these successful children gets home, their father is filled with pride and joy, but when they end up on the wrong side of life, he acts as if he never knew them.

The successful ones make efforts to revamp their childhood home by sending back money and volunteering their skills and time, but all this guy ever wants to do is be a 62-year-old underachieving idiot carried through life by charity and luck.

Famzing” diaspora success is dishonest
I’m sure before the end of the second paragraph, you figured out whose story I was telling. The 62-year story of post-independence Nigeria — which the Hollywood studio would surely reject for being too sad with no redemption — is that of our fictional antihero.

Nigeria has refused to grow up and achieve something, but it somehow feels as if it is living vicariously through the achievements of its estranged children around the world.

Remember how everyone from corporate brands to Abike Dabiri made a big song and dance about supporting Anthony Joshua the “Nigerian,” whose only chance to become someone in life came when his parents emigrated from Nigeria?

Remember how things turned when he somehow lost against that chubby Mexican dude whose name I can’t remember? Remember when the Super Falcons won the female AFCON title and received a congratulatory tweet from the president, only for them to have to stage a protest before being paid their camp allowances?

That’s what we do in Nigeria. We try to live vicariously through the achievements of people who have achieved great things under their own steam, simply because said people happen to be called ‘Ifeoma,’ ‘Efe’ and ‘Ayotunde.’

Even when Nigeria had absolutely nothing to do with said success, or in fact happened in spite of Nigeria, as with Divine Oduduru, we bask in the reflected glory of their personal achievements.

Sometimes when those people wear a Nigerian flag or post something about Wizkid or Jollof Rice on Instagram, we go crazy with the Nigerian flag emojis because oh my god, they identify with us!

This is not about being a Killjoy
Somehow, the complete failure of Nigeria and our complicity in its failure is more bearable when we point at Nigerian immigrants doing great things in life and say “I knew Femi before he started calling himself Anthony.

His father and I were classmates in Aiyetoro.” It is unclear how exactly this helps our situation but hey, it’s also unclear how chugging the amount of alcohol we do helps either.

Escapism is a key part of our culture, and anyone who dissents must be a non-Jollof-eating, vegetarian heretic, and possibly also an atheist.

Now while all this is painfully cringey to my eyes, some will also point out that Nigeria is not the only country that has a weird obsession with its diaspora population.

Even ‘first-world’ countries like Ireland continue to have deep emotional and economic connections to their diaspora, and in any case Nigerians proudly supporting Anthony Joshua or the NBA’s Giannis Ante…African-sounding-name is basically harmless fun. They’re not hurting anyone. Why be such a killjoy, David?

The reason this matters can be found in a quote that has been dubiously attributed to Russian President Vladmir Putin, where he describes Africa as the place where its diaspora does not invest in, but returns to only to die and be buried with their ancestors.

While there is no concrete evidence that Mr. Putin ever actually made that comment, the truth in it is painfully poignant.

For diaspora success to be meaningful to Nigeria, it must correlate to on-ground results in Nigeria. The example of Somalia shows that having a well-educated, globally successful diaspora while being an absolute basket case are both possible at the same time.

I’d imagine we do not aspire to be Somalia.

Excellent post, I even had an idiot tell me Rishi wasn't harassed by Indians so we should leave Kemi alone. Imagine that BS.

Another even started talking about prayers for Kẹmi being answered blah blah blah.

Sometimes we really are the lowest of the low as black Africans. No wonder the rest of the world trampled all over us.
