Presidential aide, Dada Olusegun, has criticised the United Kingdom’s Conservative Party leader, Kemi Badenoch, over her recent comments on Nigerian citizenship.

‎Badenoch, during an interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria on Sunday, claimed that she cannot pass on her Nigerian citizenship to her children because of her gender, arguing that it is easier for Nigerians to acquire British citizenship than for foreigners to become Nigerians.

‎Reacting to the claim in a post via his X handle today,  Olusegun accused Badenoch of deliberately misrepresenting Nigeria’s laws, he also accused the UK politician of a continuous attempt to malign Nigeria.
