Kemi Badenoch as Tory Party leader ?

Olukemi Adegoke was born on 2 January 1980 in Wimbledon, London.[11] She is one of three children born to Nigerian Yoruba parents. Her father, Femi Adegoke, was a GP and her mother, Feyi Adegoke, was a professor of physiology. She has a brother and a sister.[12] Badenoch spent her childhood living in Lagos, Nigeria, and in the United States, where her mother lectured.[13][14] 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.[15] Although a British citizen and born in the UK, during her parliamentary maiden speech Badenoch stated that she was "to all intents and purposes a first-generation immigrant".[16]

Badenoch achieved A Levels from Phoenix College, a further education college in Morden, south London, whilst working at a branch of McDonald's among other jobs. During this time, she said she "became working class".[11][17] Badenoch studied Computer Systems Engineering at the University of Sussex, completing a Master of Engineering (MEng) degree in 2003.[18][19]
