Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general election, Peter Obi, has vowed never to divorce his wife, Margaret Brown son, regardless of any condition.
The lead Nigerian opposition figure said an extramarital affair would not be enough to break his marriage to his wife.
He made this revelation during an appearance on “The Honest Bunch” podcast, by actor Chinedu Ani Emmanuel aka Nedu.
“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 said.
“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 travelling 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.”
