“Even if my wife cheats on me, I won’t divorce her” – Peter Obi
Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in Nigeria’s 2023 general election publicly pledges an unwavering commitment to his wife, Margaret Brownson, asserting he would never divorce her under any circumstances.
Speaking on The Honest Bunch podcast hosted by comedian and actor Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, popularly known as Nedu Wazobia, Obi made his stance clear.
The former Anambra State governor stated that he would stand by his wife regardless of any potential missteps, including infidelity.
“No matter what my wife does today, I won’t divorce her. I can’t separate from her. I can never. Even if she like let her shoot me, as long as I am alive, she’s my wife,” he affirmed.
“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!
“You can’t quantify me with the life of my wife or children. No. We have different lifestyles. Even if I’m traveling with my wife, people have seen it. Sometimes we are in the same plane but in different classes. She is in business class and I’m in economy. Because that suits her and it doesn’t conflict with my interests,” the presidential candidate concluded.
Obi’s comments spark discussions on social media, with many weighing in on his views on loyalty, marriage, and forgiveness.
