The politician believe the controversy was a national distraction as he questioned why so much energy was fixated on a crossdresser’s lifestyle amid the current situation in the country.

According to Obi, if the government enforced laws favouring women over men, people condemning Bobrisky might ironically be among the first to join him in crossdressing, a comment that left everyone in the studio laughing.

“When somebody told me about Bobrisky, I said ‘listen, these are entertainers that should not be brought into the polity’…Let’s deal with our problems. If they sell fuel for 800 naira for female alone, you will shock the numbers of men dressing like women," Peter Obi said.
