In her current life, she has taken to wearing African clothing and jewellery, as well as affecting an African hairstyle, presenting herself visually in all respect as an African woman, fully reflecting her adopted African culture.
This, conveniently is published in full on
Twitter, which has Sue Hussey asking the self-styled Ngozi Fulani, “Where are you from”?
To this, Fulani responds, “Sistah Space”, which has Hussey asking: “No, where do you come from?”. Fulani evades the question, replying that “we’re based in Hackney”. Hussey returns with a more direct question: “No, what part of Africa are YOU from”.
One might recall that this question is addressed to a woman who has adopted an African name (on her name badge, that Hussey had seen), embraces African culture as “her” culture, and wears obviously African-style clothing and jewellery.
At this point, which is probably crucial, Fulani doesn’t deny that she’s from Africa. Rather, she says to the question “what part of Africa do you come from”, “I don’t know, they didn’t leave any records”.
Hussey has now, effectively been suckered into a trap. She tells this woman who so demonstrably embraces an African culture and who does not deny coming from Africa, “Well, you must know where you come from. I spent time in France”. She then asks again, “Where are you from?”
Fulani responds, “here in the UK”, leaving a puzzled Hussey to say, “No, but what nationality are you?”. Says Fulani, “I am born here and am British”, with Hussey rattling back: “No, but where do you really come from, where do your people come from”.
Once again, we need to remind ourselves that Fulani is masquerading as an African, and has embraced the African culture. But, despite identifying so closely with African people, she chooses an aggressive response, feigning injured innocence with: “My people, lady, what is that?”
Well, if you adopt an African name, dress like an African and adopt the culture of an African, and then say you are British, to be asked where you’re really from is just polite conversation.
