Nigerian Politicians Use Public Money As Their Private Piggy Bank: Kemi Badenoch by Islie: 1:34pm On Jul 13, 2022
Kemi Badenoch, in her pursuit to be UK’s next prime minister of the United Kingdom, has slammed Nigerian politicians as looters and dream killers.

“I grew up in Nigeria, and I saw first hand what happens when politicians are in it for themselves, when they use public money as their private piggy bank, when they promise the earth and pollute not just the air, but the whole political atmosphere with their failure to serve others. I saw what socialism means for millions: poverty and broken dreams,” said Ms Badenoch in a speech announcing her ambition to become UK’s prime minister on the Conservative Party on Tuesday.

Ms Badenoch and 10 other politicians from the Conservative Party had declared their interest in becoming the next prime minister of the United Kingdom by September 5.

“Now I recognise that this is an ambitious agenda. And running to be Prime Minister when you’re a 42-year-old is by definition ambitious, but I am ambitious: for our country and for our party. I chose to become a Conservative MP to serve, and I chose this country because I can be who I am and I could be everything that I wanted to be,” Ms Badenoch noted.

She announced her intention to run in an opinion piece published in the Times of London on Saturday, saying she would run on a “smart and nimble vision.”

She, and four of her colleagues, had resigned last Wednesday in a joint letter announcing their resignation from government as scandals rocked the Boris Johnson administration. She resigned as minister for local government, faith and communities at the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities and as minister for equalities.

Ms Badenoch joined the Conservative Party at the age of 25 when she contested in the 2010 general elections for the Dulwich and West Norwood constituency against Labour’s Tessa Jowell and came in third place.

Her campaign is around tax cuts, low regulation, and attacking the UK’s net-zero target.

We hear you Kemi, you're right.

And old fashioned people devoid of good governance skills.

The only exception is Peter Obi and Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed of Labour party.

Nigerian politicians will be praying against Kemi Badenoch already.

Verily verily I say into you, Nigerian politicians will sweat if she becomes the PM. She will come with HOLY vendetta against them for messing up her motherland.

Where money and the so-called "structure" is not a determinant factor to your achievement in public office, aunty just to let you know that they have upgraded from piggybanks to Agbado and Cassava banks but we are changing that come 2023.

Pathetic.
Re: Nigerian Politicians Use Public Money As Their Private Piggy Bank: Kemi Badenoch by Seniorwriter(m): 6:00pm On Jul 13, 2022
Known fact...

The bugging question always is what has APC done as a party(I was a party member though slightly active) that gives them the audacious confidence to keep campaigns? In sane climes their campaigns and campaigners will be lynched or attacked by angry citizens anywhere they are seen doing such satanic campaigns.
Get your PVC ready pleeeaaase...
THE LABOUR OF OUR HEROES PAST SHALL NOT BE IN VAIN!....
Pinned emphasis on the word Labour
I'm sure the word is gradually playing a role on the political party called Labour Party

We need vote in all leadership positions young visionary leaders come next year and most importantly vote out both APC & PDP alike.

She's saying nothing but the truth. I wish her the best in her quest, though it's very unlikely she will be the next UK prime minister

She no dey cap.

Beauty and brains.

Well we have been our own very enemies in Africa. So much resources and we are already late to the party

Such a generational decay in all facets.

I’m ashamed to come from this part of the world.

Like seriously. I can remember some years ago when my friend's girlfriend ( now wife ) who happens to come from USA visited us then in Asaba. We saw Okowa's convoy going to Onitsha or so. Omoh, she asked if that's the President of Nigeria. I told her No, she asked if it's a fmr President. I told her it's the governor of the state. She was marveled and said that he might have been a very powerful individual before becoming a governor. I didn't say anything.
The type of lives these politicians ( esp the senators and the governors) are living is something else. It's very expensive. We need to reduce the extravagant lifestyle, I believe IBB introduced all these sumptuous lives. We need to change
