Poland gets first black Member of Parliament...


John Abraham Godson, a Polish citizen born and raised in Nigeria, has been sworn in as the first black member of Poland's parliament.

Mr Godson had served as a councillor in the city of Lodz before taking up a parliamentary seat, vacated by a party colleague after local elections.

His entry into parliament has created a media stir in the mainly white country.  

He came to Poland in the 1990s, opening an English-language school and working as a pastor in a Protestant church. More...
