A British-Nigerian councillor, Celia Hibbert, has been elected as the leader of an opposition party, Reform UK in Wolverhampton.
Hibbert said on Wednesday via her social media platforms that she was unanimously elected the leader of the party on Wolverhampton City Council.
“I am deeply honoured to have been elected unanimously as Leader of Reform UK in Wolverhampton, a responsibility which now sees me serve as Leader of the official opposition on Wolverhampton City Council,” she said.
The Nigerian woman said the party had treated her fairly by her ability, character and commitment to public service.
“That has been a refreshing and profoundly different experience from my time in The Labour Party, which, in my opinion, is often more focused on diversity, equity and inclusion, rather than on talent, merit and commitment,” Hibbert stated.
She affirmed to remain focused, disciplined and attentive to the legitimate concerns of local residents.
“Every single day, I shall carry the heartbeat of the British electorate with patriotism, duty and pride,” she added.
