His name is Chuka Umunna. His has a Nigerian father and a British mother.
This gives him the right to claim both countries. Umunna, who is a key player in the Labour Party, is already being described as Britain’s Obama in the UK's political circle and is quoted to have said.
'the first black British Prime Minister may be in the making'.
His official title is Shadow Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills. He holds this position in the shadow government set up by Britain’s opposition party, the Labour Party (LP) headed by Ed Miliband.
Chuka Umunna is currently regarded by many as Miliband’s rising star. His rising status has started attracting revolt from jealous Labour MPs who have accused him of running a ‘presidential-style’ Commons office... How interesting would it be to have a Nigerian as Britain's first Black Prime Minister.
