The question why Peter Obi’s wife should own an expensive bag is illegitimate – even unintelligent

Own money versus public money.

This is obvious that Peter Obi’s wife was not included in the official cabinet of His Excellency Peter Obi as a first lady. Peter Obi, was not interested to recognize the office of the first lady. Hence whatever the wife owns does not related to the public money, But her personal money, she used to buy Hermes Kelly 35 shiny crocodile porosus Gold Hardware

How can a person be judged in using her personal money as she wants? We saw that during the days of Peter obi as the governor of Anambra State he managed the state funds that he had a left over in the public account.

As Governor of Anambra, Obi was the only governor of his generation to shut down the funded Office of the First Lady. He said publicly that his wife was not elected and should not operate as though she held an official position – and that public funds should not maintain an office with no electoral mandate. He has said he will apply the same principle in Aso Rock if elected: no publicly funded Office of the First Lady.

Here is the question from where does the wife got the money to buy such a bag? It is clearly obvious that it was NOT from the public money but her personal income. And this makes the issue illegitimate – even unintelligent.

Frugality is personal. Integrity is public. Own money versus public money – know the difference.
Margaret Obi can buy any bag of any worth with her personal money.

Can you say the same about the Office of the First Lady, and how it spends public treasury?

That is the distinction this critique glosses over. It is not about whether a politician’s wife may own an expensive bag, Hermes Kelly 35 shiny crocodile porosus Gold Hardware– of course she may, with her own money. It is about whether public funds are diverted to sustain a spouse’s lifestyle. On that specific and narrow question, Obi’s record is usually clean.

Peter Obi’s frugality is personal to himself alone. He has never imposed it on his wife, children, family, or friends. There is no record of him rebuking anyone for spending his personal money or wealth. On the contrary, he has spoken openly about his wife enjoying luxury while he does not interfere, and about the visible contrast in their household – one they live with peacefully.

Margaret Obi runs her own business

Margaret Obi runs her own business and makes her own money. She may not publicize it, but it is hers to spend as she sees fit. What exactly is wrong with a woman spending her own hard-earned money?
Obi lives what he preaches, but he has never been fanatical about imposing it on others. What he has been consistent about is where public office ends and private life begins – and that distinction has a real, verifiable record behind it. The purchase of Hermes Kelly 35 shiny crocodile porosus Gold Hardware by Margaret Obi is illegitimate – even unintelligent. This should not raise an argument in the first place

Who else has shown that discipline – drawing a hard line between public office and private life?
