Nigerian born Leader of the United Kingdom Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, has shared her experience attending a federal school, adding that attending the Federal Government Girls College, FGGC, Sagamu, Ogun State, Nigeria, was a prison experience.
The British lawmaker, Kemi Badenoch said that while she was attending Federal Government Girls School in Sagamu, she was supposed to mow the lawn and clean the lavatory without running water in a social media video clip.
“I went to a secondary school, it was called a federal government girls school in a place called Sagamu,” she said.
“And that was like being in prison when I tell the stories about using a machete and having to fetch buckets of water.
“And that was the first time that I was away from home, away from my family. It’s a federal boarding school. And it was a dormitory with about 150 [girls] I think, 20 to 30 in a room. And there were, you know, six rooms.
“The machete was for cutting the grass. Well, because, who else is going to cut the grass?
“This is a federal school where, this old grammar school system sort of fading out, and everyone who passed an exam and got a certain school, got to go to a federal school.
“And this was more socialism. So they sprinkled people around. They didn’t want one school getting all the best results. They would mix people about so you could end up getting sent thousands of miles away to a boarding school, you know, at the extreme end of the country.
“So I was lucky. I didn’t get sent too far away, but I was very far from home. I’d never been away from home before, and it was like Lord of the Flies, you know, the students were in control.
“We needed to look after the school grounds. So using a machete, having to clean toilets with no running water. I’m not going to go into the description of that,” she stated.
This is coming days after Kemi Badenoch stated that she no longer wishes to identify with Nigeria as her birth country.
