Excerpts:
"There are many countries who want to use guilt to try and exploit the UK. I saw it as trade minister, it's not culture wars.
I was at the WTO, I won't name the minister from another country.
He was telling me we need to give up some of the things we were doing because of colonialism and because they needed time to develop.
These arguments are a scam. Don't fall for it. We need to make sure that we put the UK first, we have to look after ourselves."
Interviewer: "Those advocating for reparations will say, shouldn't we make up for the damage we did through slavery? As a black woman saying this they may find that hard to understand from you".
Kemi:"Well, there are many things that the British empire got wrong. There are many amazing things that the British Empire also did and we need to be honest about that and stop pretending that it was all bad".

“She lived in Nigeria until she was 16, but the country is mostly absent from her public identity. Badenoch has mostly described Nigeria as a cautionary tale.

She told the Daily Mail that she did not want the UK to “become like the place I ran away from”.......

She holds allegiance to Britain that gave her a chance to thrive. That is her country and she needs to defend it. That is what modern immigration is!
Not some nigerianes one Nigerian woman was forcing on innocent peoples throat to blackmail them.
If you have grown in Nigeria and have a chance outside . You will see the rottenness .
By the way most Nigeria government officials are garbage of corruption with hidden scandals… imagine agreeing to a meeting, taking photos etc ,and in few years there is a corruption scandal involving one of those you hard a meeting with.
The British media will milk it so deep and the opposite party.

Please keep yourself from this scavengers.
There will spell doom for your budding career

Africans and their inexplicable entitlement mentality.

We loot whatever is here and head there with those things yet want them to repay us with what we took over there.

She should have said something about the amazing things the British Empire did in Nigeria for example.
I guess we should thank them for ending slavery which Africans were the victims.
It is like being grateful to an armed robber who for whatever reason decided not to rob you any longer after years of pillaging your home.
The black face of racist colonizers.

You are coming from a place of ignorance, your history is readily available to you go and read it. It was called SLAVE TRADE for a reason., Trade means exchanging something for another mostly for commercial purposes.

It's getting boring to label someone a racist just for standing up for the people who elected them.

The race card has been played once too often. It's time to move on and fix your country! 🤷‍♂️

Your lot were neck-deep in the slave trade and refused to stop even after the Brits abolished it.

And let's not forget, blacks owned slaves too, your fellow blacks you traded to others. So stop playing the victim card and ditch the crocodile tears.

You are the ignorant one. Human beings are not commodities to be traded in the first place. We are talking of over 400 years of unimaginable cruelty to Africans, not to mention robbing the continent of resources.
The Isrealis are today killing anyone they consider an enemy, how long were the Nazis in power?
Africans are only asking for what is fair, not seeking revenge.
I see you love your chains so much, you might even have convinced yourself you are wearing gold.

She is simply a coconut.

It is sad that while she was yapping on about reparations for the african continent , she conveniently forgot to mention the reparations or should i say, compensations paid to the erstwhile slave owners before the british were able to put a stop to slavery.

I never expected much from her, anyway .

You are talking nonsense. The British and the white folks in general do not deserve any gratitude for stopping what they started in the first place.
There wasn't any trade in human beings before the white man. Slaves before then were people captured in inter tribal wars.
There's no comparison with the trans Atlantic slave trade.

Mate, slavery is a global phenomenon. Stop attributing it to the whites.

Now, contrary to your claim. Slavery and slaves long existed before the European involvement. It has existed throughout human history, across various cultures and continents.

just in case you forgot, there were Pre-transatlantic slave.
There was Ancient Egyptian slavery, Greek and Roman slavery, Arab slave trade, trans-Saharan slave trade, etc.
These trades predated European involvement and, in some cases, were equally or even more brutal.

Are you aware that Arab slave trade enslaved an estimated 10-20 million Africans? Where's your condemnation.

Also, African kingdoms like the Ashanti, Dahomey, and Kongo participated in the slave trade. Where's your condemnation? 🤷‍♂️
I mean, your own folks literally sold you out. Yet here you are trying to play the victim card.

Buddy, no one's falling for this anymore!

Unfortunately, she's saying the truth...

Slave trade was abolished long ago, instead of us to bond together and usher in a new way of living and see to the development of our land, we continue ing down the trauma of those dark memories generation to another and wallow in dilusion abandoning the true means of our existence.

When you are treated as subhumans for centuries unfortunately you start to accept it as true. This is the only reason a black person would defend slavery in any form.
The fact that it happened many years ago doesn't make it right.
The Jews after the holocaust said never again, the black man on the other hand is trying to rationalize the greatest injustice men have ever done to each other.

Oh so you agree the slave trade is/ was a global thing and that blacks weren't the only victim of slave trade and actively participated,correct?
