“I Will Shut Down The Office Of The First Lady!” – Peter Obi Drops a Bombshell

Mr. Peter Obi is back in the spotlight, reinforcing his reputation as one of Nigeria’s most frugal and people-focused leaders. In a recent statement, he boldly declared:

“The Office of the First Lady is getting more funding than some ministries. I will shut it down when I become president because nobody voted for the first lady—they voted for me.”

This remark has ignited a flurry of reactions online, with many Nigerians questioning the necessity and extravagant spending associated with unelected government positions.

Is Obi onto something here? Should the Office of the First Lady even be a thing in a country struggling with high-profile debt and inflation?

We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
