In addition to her current role as Special Assistant to Speaker Tajudeen Abbas, Badmus revealed her ministerial aspirations.
"Sometimes, I long for my former self—the ample curves, the plush softness, the unapologetic way I occupied space. I yearn for the familiarity, the intimate knowledge of every contour, the perfect fit of certain clothes. That body held a comfort, an unquestioned sense of self."
“But then, I look at my new body, and I see growth not just physically, but emotionally. This body has carried me through change, through challenges, through moments of doubts and discovery. It moves differently, it feels different, but it is still mine. And just as I learned to love my body before, I am learning to love this one now.
“Missing who I was doesn’t take away from appreciating who I am becoming. Both versions of me deserve love, respect and kindness. And in this journey of transformation, I remind myself that no matter the size, my worth remained unchanged.
“Happy new month.
