Terry Atieno alias 'Proud Chocolate' says she has started her journey into the European parliament. 

Terry is a former Radio presenter at Royal Media’s Ramogi FM and owns an online podcast in Germany.

Through her Instagram page, she expressed her interest in running for a seat in her Town Assembly/ County Assembly in Buxtehude Stade District in The Outcasts of the Great Free City of Hamburg Germany this September 2021.

"Wish me only well my people. I'm going to face it all. Hate and support but am ready for it all," she said adding that God has chosen her.

"I am trying it out whether I fail or pass I’ll still be on the books as one of the black immigrants who tried a hand in leadership out here in the western world."

Among the reasons she is running for the seat is to fight for other integrated immigrants. 

"I want equality in treatment and for people to see beyond colour. 

I want us to be taken seriously. I want our children to grow up here feeling 100 per cent at home.

"I am unapologetically Black amidst a white society. Let me be that example. 

September 12th is the main day of Ballot. Slowly until one day I get to the European Parliament. Until then, let me get down to the process."
