In this episode, we discuss the controversial statements made by Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the Conservative Party in the UK, regarding her Nigerian identity and citizenship laws.

We explore the implications of her remarks on identity politics, her political strategy, and the broader context of racism in immigration policies.

Our conversation also touches on the Global Talent Visa and its impact on Nigerian creatives, as well as the role of right-wing politics in shaping public perception and policy in the UK.
