Badenoch talk say, na because she be woman, she fit no transfer her Nigerian citizenship give her children. E even mention say, “It’s virtually impossible to get Nigerian citizenship.” Ah, so na so e be? Abike no dey sleep on top matter like dis o. She quickly jump in to correct the narrative, saying, “That is a lie, and I’m sure people have responded.” (E be like say she no fit shout loud pass dis particular one!)
She warn Badenoch say, “You no fit come dey talk wetin no true about your country.” The gbas gbos no dey end there, as she hammer on about how people dey make remarkable strides for abroad, but Badenoch dey take us back with her false claims.
“We get many Nigerians wey dey the political space for UK and dem dey shine like stars,” Abike dey remind us. She no forget to shout out for ordinary Nigerians wey dey face struggles abroad. “We dey committed to protect Nigerians and celebrate wetin dem dey do outside.” Na wetin we like hear!
Abike argue say whether good or bad, diaspora must engage with this conversation grounded in truth and patriotism. Na serious matter, no be play.
