Kemi Badenoch says she no longer considers herself Nigerian

Transcript

00:00I have not renewed my Nigerian passport, I think, not since the early 2000s.

00:08It's just, I don't identify with it anymore.

00:12Most of my life has been in the UK, and I just never felt a need to.

00:17So when I go there, when my dad died, I had to get a visa to go to Nigeria,

00:23which is all a big Fandango.

00:24And because I am Nigerian through ancestry, despite not being born there,

00:30because of my parents, yes, I am.

00:33But by identity, I'm not really.

00:37I know the country very well.

00:38I have a lot of family there, and I'm very interested in what happens there.

00:42But home is where my now family is.

00:46And my now family is my children.

00:48It's my husband, my brother, and his children, and in-laws.

00:54And the Conservative Party is very much part of my family, my extended family, I call it.
