British-Nigerian Kemi Badenoch, 10 others declare for office of U.K. prime minister

A British politician of Nigerian descent, Kemi Badenoch, and 10 other politicians from the Conservative Party have declared interest to become the next prime minister of the United Kingdom by September 5.on Saturday, saying she would run on a “smart and nimble centre-right vision.”

Tax cuts is perhaps an attractive campaign headline for aspirants and contenders following the current financial realities of the U.K. and its effect on Britons. Ms Badenoch, 42, born to Nigerian parents in Wimbledon, London, spent some part of her childhood in Lagos and later returned to the U.K at 16.

She was elected as MP for Saffron Walden constituency in the 2017 general election and was re-elected in 2019. He soon fell off the ladder of praises after it was revealed that he was involved in PartyGates, for which he later apologised. “I have a plan to stir our economy through these headwinds. We need to return to traditional conservative values and that means, honesty and responsibility not fairytales,” he said in his campaign speech.

Ms Truss last December, became the chief negotiator with the European Union on the UK’s Brexit deal and has held multiple cabinet positions. Ms Truss was one of the few government officials who stood by Boris Johnson as resignations crippled his administration last week.The former health minister who pulled the lid off the resignation barrel announced his intention on Sunday via Twitter.
