Vice President Kashim Shettima has told British Conservative Party Leader, Mrs. Kemi Badenoch, to remove Kemi from her name if she is not proud of having a Nigerian background.
The former Borno State Governor also accused Badenoch of disparaging Nigeria, her country of origin.
Shettima, who spoke on Monday at the 10th Annual Migration Dialogue at the State House in Abuja, said: “Kemi Badenoch is the leader of the British Labour or Conservative Party. We are proud of her in spite of her efforts at denigrating her nation of origin.
“She is entitled to her own opinions. She has even every right to remove the Kemi from her name but that does not underscore the fact that the greatest black nation on earth is the nation called Nigeria.
“One out of every three, four black men is a Nigerian and by 2050, Nigeria will support the United States, and will be the third most populous nation on earth”.
Badenoch had accused Nigerian politicians of diverting public funds.
