Olukemi (later shortened to Kemi) Olufunto Adegoke was born on 2 January 1980 in Wimbledon, London.[11] Her mother had travelled from Nigeria to the UK to give birth in St Teresa’s private hospital before the British Nationality Act 1981 abolished automatic birthright citizenship for those born in the United Kingdom, and then returned to Nigeria shortly after Badenoch was born.[12][13][14] She is one of three children born to Nigerian Yoruba parents.
She returned to the UK at the age of 16 to live with a friend of her mother’s owing to the deteriorating political and economic situation in Nigeria, which had affected her family.[21] During her parliamentary maiden speech Badenoch stated that she was “to all intents and purposes a first-generation immigrant”.[22]
EDIT : Or by peasant does she mean people who had no running water or electricity?
Badenoch has described her background as “middle-class” but said in 2018 “Being middle class in Nigeria still meant having no running water or electricity, sometimes taking your own chair to school” and claimed that her family went through “periods of poverty” due to inflation
Is she referring to the communities of “first generation migrant” Nigerians?
