The leader of the Conservative Party in the UK, Kemi Badenoch, has claimed that she cannot confer her Nigerian citizenship on her children because she is a woman.
Badenoch was speaking on Sunday with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria.
She made the comments while comparing the immigration policies of Nigeria and Britain.
According to Badenoch, immigrants often exploit the British system in ways they would not dare attempt in their home countries.
To further buttress her point, Badenoch referenced her children’s inability to obtain Nigerian citizenship.
“It’s virtually impossible, for example, to get Nigerian citizenship. I have that citizenship by virtue of my parents, I can’t give it to my children because I’m a woman,” she said.
“Yet loads of Nigerians come to the UK and stay for a relatively free period of time, acquire British citizenship. We need to stop being naive.”
