“Women are less corrupt, they are more determined” – Peter Obi says
Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, suggested that gender may impact levels of corruption, with women generally being less corrupt than men.
Speaking on the Honest Bunch podcast, Obi attributed this to women’s strong family values and dedication to societal progress.
Reflecting on his time as governor of Anambra State, Obi shared his experience of appointing women to key roles within his administration.
He explained that women’s family-centred outlook drives them to make decisions that foster a better society, which he believes can lead to more ethical governance.
Obi said, “Women are less corrupt. They are not as corrupt as men. And because they have families, they are more determined to see things work.
“When I was governor, my Chief of Staff and commissioners for Education and Planning were all women.”
The Director-General of the Tinubu-Shettima Ambassadors, a campaign group that advocated for President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 elections, Oladele Oyelude, has downplayed attempts to use opposition to the tax reforms bill to create discord between the North and President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election.
Oyelude, an All Progressives Congress (APC) leader in Osun State, emphasized that those opposed to the bill should work with their National Assembly representatives to address any concerns rather than stirring up regional tensions.
