Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has taken a swipe at United Kingdom Conservative party leader Kemi Badenoch who denigrates Nigeria any time she speaks about and on the country.
The former minister said since the UK party leader doesn’t not want to be associated with her own mother country Nigeria, she just take Vice President Kashim Shettima’s counsel seriously and drop Kemi as her name.
She should formally wipe her maiden name of Adegoke off the record as well and publicly renounce and disavow her father, mother, siblings and Nigerian lineage and heritage.
Fani-Kayode stated this on his verified official X handle on Sunday where he went on to add that “She does not want to identify with us and we do not want to identify with her.”
Under his lengthy statement titled ‘KEMI BADENOCH’S HATE FOR NIGERIA’ he lamented how Badenoch sees Nigeria as being corrupt and evil and he replied her saying “we see her as being the devil incarnate and the spawn of satan. There can be no fellowship between us.
“The truth is that she is no longer a mere irritant or the inconsequential object of our contempt and ridicule but she can now be comfortably and legitimately described as ‘public enemy number one’ of our beloved nation.”
In one of her disparaging comments, he quoted her to have said “I find it interesting that everyone defines me as a Nigerian. I identify less with the country than with my specific ethnic group. I have nothing in common with the people from the north of the country, the Boko Haram, where Islamism is. Being Yoruba is my true identity and I refuse to be lumped with the northern people of Nigeria who were our ethnic enemies, all in the name of being called a Nigerian”- @KemiBadenoch.
Fani-Kayode expressed his resentment against Kemi Badenoch MP, the leader of the British Conservative Party & Opposition in the @UKParliament, accusing to have refused to stop at just denigrating our country but has gone a step further by seeking to divide us on ethnic lines.
He said “She claims that she never regarded herself as being a Nigerian but rather a Yoruba and that she never identified with the people from the Northern part of our country who she collectively describes as being “Boko Haram Islamists” & “terrorists”.
“This is dangerous rhetoric coming from an impudent & ignorant foreign leader who knows nothing about our country, who does not know her place & who insists on stirring up a storm that she cannot contain & that may eventually consume her.
“It is rather like saying that she identifies more with the English than she does with the Scots & the Welsh whom she regards as nothing more than homicidal & murderous barbarians that once waged war against her ethnic English compatriots!
“All this coming from a young lady of colour that is a political leader in a multi-ethnic, multi-religious and multi-cultural country that lays claim to being the epitome of decency & civilisation! What a strange & inexplicable contradiction this is.
“Her intentions are malevolent & insidious & her objective, outside of ridiculing & mocking us, is to divide us & bring us to our knees.”
He then asked “what on earth happened to this creature in her youth and why does she hate Nigeria with such passion?
“Did something happen to her when she lived here which she has kept secret?
“Was she the victim of some form of deviant behaviour, abuse or perversion that has resulted in trauma, long term psychological damage & mental health issues?
“Is this why she sees red and gets her pretty knickers in a twist whenever she hears “Nigeria”?
“Why does the mention of the name of our country trigger such compulsive, violent and aggressive emotions and impulses in her? ”
He then said ‘Given her pathological hatred for Nigerians, these are legitimate questions that need to be answered.
“She hates us with what the Bible describes as “a perfect hatred” yet in a much publicised and widely read open letter written in 2010 during her first bid to be elected into the UK Parliament she begged the Nigerian community in her constituency to support her.
“At that time, when she still needed us, she identified with Nigerians but everything changed after she was elected.
“At that point, in her conflicted and confused mind, all Nigerians became demons, all Englanders became angels and her disdain and contempt for us was unmasked!
“She hates us with a perfect hatred yet she still has the effontry and nerve to haul her rotund posterior back to our country with one Hamish, who I am told is her English husband, to watch polo at the Lagos Polo Club.
“This is the same country that she has described as being a lawless jungle and corrupt stinking edifice from which no good can come and that is filled with nothing but apes, monsters and the criminally insane.
“The truth is that the creature called Kemi Badenoch is nothing but a b*tch on heat. She needs to be tamed and caged.
“She is Aunty Jemima on steroids and the President of the International House Ni*gers Association.”
He called for the revocation of her Nigerian passport (if she still has one) and be barred from stepping her ‘leprous’ foot in our country again.
“She should stick to the affairs of her UK, face it’s ruling Labour Party and it’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer
@Keir_Starmer and LEAVE NIGERIA ALONE!, he said.
