‘Women Are Less Corrupt, They Are More Determined’ – Peter Obi

Meanwhile, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has stated that gender can influence levels of corruption, suggesting that women tend to be less corrupt than men.

Speaking on the Honest Bunch Podcast, Obi attributed this to women’s strong family orientation and a commitment to societal improvement.

Reflecting on his tenure as governor of Anambra State, Obi shared his experience of appointing women to strategic positions 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.”
