Peter Obi Defends Wife Over Alleged ₦250m Handbag: “She Has Her Own Business And Her Own Money”
Former Anambra State Governor and Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has addressed the controversy surrounding his wife, Margaret Obi, after she was spotted carrying a luxury handbag allegedly worth ₦250 million.

The handbag sparked heated debate on social media, with many Nigerians questioning the reported price tag and whether it was appropriate for the spouse of a prominent political figure to own such an expensive item.

Responding to the criticism, Obi stated that his wife is financially independent and runs her own business.
“My wife has her own business and her own money, so what is my business if she buys expensive items with her money? The bags and shoes my wife wears, I don’t even know how much they cost.”
His response has since generated mixed reactions online, with some defending his stance and calling for issue-based politics, while others debated the authenticity of the bag’s price and compared the public reaction to similar cases involving other political figures.

The reported value of the handbag has not been independently verified.
