UK Prime Minister Hopeful, Kemi Badenoch Knocks Nigerian Politicians, What We Know

 


It's no more a news that Boris Johnson has announced to relinquish power, resign the best job in the world as British Prime Minister.


What led to his resignation was a minor case to demand for any African leaders to resign office. Couple of weeks ago, I was privileged to attend a seminar organized by the INEC, sensitizing Journalists on reportorial obligation, "balance their reports" while reporting Osun election, which was well attended by many correspondents of giant media in Nigeria, such as NTA, OSBC, TVC, ARISE, Osun Online Publishers Association (OOPA), PUNCH, AIT and other recognized media firms.


Most of our members at Osun Online Media Practitioner's Association, asked reasonable questions on what needed to be done to salvage the face of election in Nigeria.


Moment the nomination form fee for presidential office was announced by Political Parties, I wrote on behest of my client instruction who resides in United Kingdom, I juxtaposed between Nigeria's Electoral system and United Kingdom that colonized our Nation. My inquisitive on the assignment gave me audacity to stood up and asked a jaw breaking question from the INEC officials during her orientation programme which I believed was treated with a complete rigmarole and or begged.


As for me, INEC can start rebuilding the country, moderate aspirant's spending, fund soliciting, and fix prices for nomination form with the help of judiciary. 


Two cogent reasons Why Borris Johnson Resigns 


Partygate


The tragedy which pummeled his resignation announcement ranged from downing street party gate during COVID-19 lockdown, On April this year, the prime minister was fined for breaking lockdown rules after attending his birthday in 2020.


Cost of Living Crisis and Tax Rises


Inflation has risen in 2022 to the current rate of 9.1%


Are these enough to demand for African leader's power relinquish?


A statement issued by Kemi Badenoch, who had been through among the remaining six candidates vying to become British prime minister, she must have given up on Nigeria before making her way to pledge allegiance to one of the best nations in the world, many products are in our nation looking for ways to exhibit their potential and serve their father's land.


British Prime Minister aspirant, Kemi Badenoch, has knocked Nigerian politicians, as she announced her bid for the top office.



Her comments have been garnering reactions on TwitterNG on Wednesday.


She said, “I’m ambitious for our party and our country. I chose to become a conservative MP to serve and I chose this country because here, I can be free and I can be everything that I wanted to be.


“I grew up in Nigeria and I saw firsthand when politicians are in it for themselves. When they use private money as their piggybanks, when they promise the earth and they pollute not just the earth but the whole political atmosphere with their failure to serve others.


“I came to Britain, determined to make my way in a country where hardwork and honesty can take you anywhere.”

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

BREAKING: PDP Bleeds in Oriade: Commissioner Loses 14 Party Leaders to Wole Oke in Home Ward

In a significant political shift, 14 grassroots leaders, including prominent women and youth coordinators from Ward 11, covering Ijeda and Iloko in Oriade Local Government Area of Osun State, have resigned from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and pledged allegiance to Hon. Wole Oke’s growing political camp in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The mass resignation, formalized in a jointly signed letter, marks a deepening crack within the PDP structure in Oriade, as key mobilizers abandon the party over what they describe as years of marginalization, poor internal democracy, and a lack of direction. Their defection is also seen as a major boost to Wole Oke’s political momentum within the APC, following his recent and controversial departure from the PDP. “We are grateful for the opportunities and experiences we had as PDP members,” the group stated, “but the party no longer reflects our values or aspirations. We believe in Hon. Wole Oke’s leadership and vision, and we are proud to...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
