Shaibu urged Vice President Kashim Shettima to find something useful to do

Shaibu urged Vice President Kashim Shettima to find something useful to do rather than concentrating on Badenoch.

Badenoch had in 2010 sought the support of the Nigerian community in the United Kingdom in her bid to win a seat in the British parliament.

A campaign document which has been making the rounds on social media showed that during her campaign for Dulwich and West Norwood, she reached out to Nigerians while highlighting her roots.

In a message to her Nigerian supporters, she particularly pledged to uplift the image of the country through her position in the British political system.

However, in the race to succeed the former British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, in 2022, Badenoch had accused Nigerian politicians of using public funds for their private matters.

Also, at the Conservative Party conference, Badenoch claimed that her upbringing in Nigeria was overshadowed by fear and insecurity in a country plagued by corruption.

In one of her interviews with the British media after becoming the Conservative party leader, Badenoch said she did not want the UK to experience what made her flee Nigeria.

Phrank Shaibu, the spokesman for the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2023 elections, Atiku Abubakar, has asked those criticising the United Kingdom’s Conservative Party leader, Kemi Badenoch, to embark on a moment of introspection.
