Peter Obi Criticizes Unconstitutional N1.5 Billion Budget for First Lady, Emphasizes Clarity in Role: “Her Primary Duty is to Care for Her Husband”
**Peter Obi Calls Out Unconstitutional Allocation: Denounces N1.5 Billion Budget for First Lady**
In a firm stance against what he deems an unconstitutional financial allocation, Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, expressed his disapproval of the N1.5 billion budget earmarked for the First Lady. The outspoken critique unfolded during a World Press Conference where Obi vehemently argued that such allocations to the office of the First Lady go against constitutional principles.
During his address, Obi asserted, “All the monies allocated to the unconstitutional office of the First Lady should be transferred to educating and caring for the Girl-Child. The First Lady’s job is to look after the president. Simple!” This statement reflects Obi’s call for a more purposeful allocation of public funds, redirecting them to initiatives that contribute to societal development, specifically emphasizing education and the welfare of the Girl-Child.
Obi further underscored the need for judicious financial management, stating, “It is time for us to use money judiciously.” He clarified that a supplementary budget should only be considered for government projects of national and critical importance, such as those related to food security. However, he criticized the present government for allegedly diverting such funds towards non-essential expenditures like buying yachts and vehicles.
Expressing his dissatisfaction with the government’s financial priorities, Obi characterized their actions as irresponsible, emphasizing the importance of accountability in governance. He stated, “If I were in office, no one would have mentioned the purchase of such vehicles for government officials.”
This critique from Peter Obi not only sheds light on the specific issue of the First Lady’s budget but also serves as a broader commentary on fiscal responsibility, governance ethics, and the prudent utilization of public resources. As political discourse unfolds, Obi’s remarks contribute to the ongoing dialogue surrounding the allocation and expenditure of public funds in the context of national development.

“ How can you pardon your son and ignore other people that have been there for years,That is abuse of power” – Donald Trump to Biden
Former President Donald Trump has expressed his dissatisfaction with President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son while others who committed similar crimes remain in prison. Trump didn’t mince words, stating:
“How can you pardon your son and ignore other people that have been there for years? That is abuse of power.”
He went on to emphasize the unfairness of the situation, adding:
“Your son committed a crime, the same crime that other people committed, and they have been in prison for years. What happens to them after you free your son? That is abuse of power. People should be treated the same in America.”
Trump’s remarks highlight a broader concern about equal treatment under the law and the potential misuse of presidential power. His critique implies that Biden’s actions set a precedent that undermines the justice system, sparking debates across political and social platforms.
The issue has stirred significant controversy, with many questioning whether the pardon reflects favoritism. While Biden’s supporters may argue that his decision was personal, critics like Trump see it as an affront to the principles of fairness and justice in America.

“Why will flavour call kcee copy copy akaria” – these men are doing well in their lane, and because I am biased towards Flavour’s music, I will not speak ill of Kcee’s efforts, fan said
Kcee released an album titled Mr Versatile around July 2024. If he didn’t react to Flavour’s “copy copy akaria”, I wouldn’t know he released an album this year.
I enjoy the music of both illustrious sons of Ala Igbo. If I were at a wedding reception or inside the bedroom, I would hear more of Flavour’s songs. At a club, I would hear a mixture of Kcee and Flavour’s songs. If I were at a burial, I would hear Flavour’s songs more.
If I sampled the opinions of 30 random men and women between 40 and 60 years old who they preferred between both artists, many would say Flavour.
When Kcee called Flavour a needle in the ocean of things that matter, I assume he may be referring to another thing and not music. When it comes to music, Flavour is the ocean.
Kcee made an important point by stating no one should gatekeep the Igbo culture, and I agree with him. Anyone who feels their creative juice connects to their Igbo culture should create authentic sounds that will remain evergreen in our hearts and not belittle others for trying.
Before Flavour released his 2005 album N’abania, KC Presh (Kcee and Presh) had toured the country after their Star Quest success in 2002. Both men have come a long way and invested so much in their crafts.
Both men are doing well in their lane, and because I am biased towards Flavour’s music, I will not speak ill of Kcee’s efforts. We all have access to the Internet, streaming and concert numbers. You can be the judge.
Today, judging from current statistics of active musicians, no Igbo artist is more prominent than Flavour of Africa.
You may not like a man because you don’t have access to him, or both of you don’t roll, but don’t discredit his hard work.
