This isn't just a clip. Let's educate ourselves.
This reminds me of Sarah Baartman, a woman from South Africa with a huge a*ss who was exploited in 19th-century Europe, displayed to crowds , and subjected to dehumanizing treatment rooted in racism and colonialism.

BADAGRY APPEALS FOR REASON - THE YOUNG SHOULD BREATHE
Hon. Prince Sesi Whingan Oluwaseun - The 40 Year Old Golden Son of Badagry
Our great and beloved party has concluded her primaries with the thunder of overwhelming success - feats worthy of emulation by every party that craves growth.
Yet, Imperfection belongs to man's Trademark.
Every institution forged by human hands carries within it the seed of error, however negligible, however quiet, however small. This is not a flaw to be ashamed of. It is the very signature of our humanity.
Nowhere was this truth more vivid than in Badagry - where the people poured out, in their overwhelming multitudes, to cast their votes for their golden son: Prince Sesi Whingan.
That intimidating tide of support was not the fruit of inducement or the harvest of coercion - but the natural reward of a forty-year-old lawmaker who showed up, rolled up his sleeves, and delivered.
THE LAWMAKER WHO MADE VISIONARY LAWS
The most sacred function of a legislator is legislation. On this altar, Sesi was found neither absent nor wanting.
Hon. Prince Sesi Oluwaseun Whingan answered every storm of national and local urgency with bills, motions, and advocacy that bear his fingerprints across the chambers of the Federal House of Representatives.
KEY BILLS SPONSORED
His legislative contributions span the breadth of the republic's most urgent conversations - environmental sustainability, child safety, economic expansion, and legal modernisation.
He championed the Decarbonisation Bill, which scaled its second reading - a bold stride in Nigeria's conversation with the future of the planet.
He introduced the Internet Child Pornography Prevention Bill, because a nation that will not protect its children has no future worth protecting.
He presented the Palm Oil Development Bill - trade rooted in our history.
The Cancer Registry Bill - because data saves lives where medicine sometimes cannot.
And he moved critical update bills including the Petroleum Industry Act (Amendment) Bill and the Central Bank of Nigeria Act (Amendment) Bill - touching the twin pillars of our economic architecture.
But Sesi did not stop at the national altar. He descended to his own soil.
He drove a bill to establish the University of Technology, Badagry - in its third reading - planting a tree whose shade future generations shall sit beneath.
He also formally moved for the establishment of the Nigeria French Language School - understanding that in the language of your neighbour lies the key to the door of regional relevance.
Beyond bills, he moved motions with the urgency of a man who understands that governance delayed is governance denied.
He moved to investigate the scandal of non-functional state refineries - facilities upon which over eighteen billion dollars had been poured like water into sand.
He moved to dismantle the illegal road blockages, extortion, and harassment festering along the Lagos-Agbara-Badagry-Seme Expressway - because a road is not a road if it is a trap.
He moved to scrutinise the regional operations of the Nigeria Customs Service.
And with the compassion of a true son of the soil, he moved to halt a cholera outbreak and restore power in the Badagry West LCDA - because darkness and disease are not destiny.
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a champion of youth in politics, unmatched in the mentorship of young minds toward leadership's highest rungs.
Such a shining star is Prince Sesi Whingan Oluwaseun - a man whose capacity has never been in doubt, and whose grassroots support was never in danger.
And yet.
The primaries, which his camp celebrated as an overwhelming victory, now appear to shiver in the storm of uncertainty and possible oversight.
Performing young stars within our ranks must be encouraged to strive and to blossom. It is upon such shoulders that the future of this party and this nation shall be built.
The young should breathe.
Now to his landmark projects:
Shall I Begin?
For 3 days in 1966, Nigeria didn’t have a Head of Government:
July 29th coup that toppled the Military Government of Major General Aguiyi Ironsi caused a lacuna that hasn’t happened in Nigeria before.
