Former Anambra State Governor and Labour Party leader Peter Obi has addressed public perceptions about his personal wealth, stating clearly that he has never claimed to be poor.
According to Obi, he considers himself a comfortable man and has no issue acknowledging his financial standing. “I’ve never claimed to be a poor man. I’m a comfortable man. If you have $1 million, you’re a millionaire — and yes, I have that. I’m a millionaire anywhere in the world,” he said.
Obi’s clarification comes amid ongoing discussions about leadership, integrity, and accountability in Nigerian politics, where personal wealth is often scrutinised alongside public service records.
