Labour Party’s presidential candidate for the upcoming 2023 Nigerian general election, Peter Obi, has made a bold statement about his commitment to his wife, Margaret Brownson.
In a recent appearance on The Honest Bunch podcast hosted by comedian Nedu Wazobia, Obi expressed his unwavering solidarity with his spouse, emphasizing that he would stand by her side through thick and thin, even in the face of infidelity.
The former governor of Anambra State emphasized his loyalty to his wife, stating that he would not entertain thoughts of divorce no matter the circumstances.
“No matter what my wife does today, I won’t divorce her. I can’t separate from her. I can never. Even if she likes, let her shoot me, as long as I am alive, she’s my wife,” Obi affirmed during the podcast.
He further explained, “No matter what she does, I won’t marry [someone else]. She’s my wife.
Whatever she likes, let her do because what is she going to do that would offend me? What? Maybe have an extramarital affair? It’s her business. It’s not me. They won’t say two of us have an affair. They would say Peter Obi is a very good man who married a woman who is [promiscuous]. That is it!”
Obi’s comments have sparked discussions on social media, with many individuals sharing their opinions on loyalty, marriage, and forgiveness. The presidential candidate’s unwavering support for his wife, regardless of the circumstances, has garnered both praise and criticism from the online community.
Ultimately, Peter Obi’s public declaration of loyalty and commitment to his wife has reignited conversations about the complexities of marriage and personal relationships.
