Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in Nigeria’s 2023 general election, has affirmed his commitment to his wife, Margaret Brownson, declaring that he would not consider divorce—even in the event of infidelity.
In an appearance on The Honest Bunch podcast, hosted by comedian and actor Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, popularly known as Nedu Wazobia, Obi shared his personal beliefs about marriage and loyalty, expressing an enduring commitment to his spouse.
The former governor of Anambra State underscored his loyalty, stating that he would support his wife through any potential challenges, including instances of 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!
“No matter what my wife does to me, I can’t stop marrying her, even if she cheats on me , I will never leave her. We have different lifestyle. Even if we’re travelling together, I’ll be inside economy and she’ll be inside first class or business class” - Peter Obi pic.twitter.com/fkvpz3v1Ri

“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 on the same plane but in different classes.
She is in business class and I’m in the 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.
