The Presidency has stated that the recent remarks made by UK Conservative Party leader, Kemi Badenoch, will have no impact on Nigeria.

In her latest criticism about the country, Badenoch expressed concerns about the potential impact of ineffective governance in the United Kingdom, drawing a comparison to Nigeria.

Badenoch warned of the risks of Britain’s system faltering and likened it to governance issues in Nigeria, while speaking on the need to build trust and position the Conservative Party as a solution to Britain’s challenges.

She drew the analogy during her first speech of the year at a public event organised by a British think-tank.

Reacting to her statements, the Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communications, Daniel Bwala, during an interview today, dismissed their relevance to Nigeria’s international relations or efforts to attract investors.

Speaking in the interview, Bwala acknowledged Badenoch’s achievements in the UK, but argued that she is capitalising on populism that thrives on public discontent.
