Nigerian comedian MC Lively has criticised media personality Daddy Freeze over his recent comments concerning presidential candidate Peter Obi and a luxury Hermès bag carried by his wife.
Daddy Freeze had said he had no issue with Obi’s wife carrying an expensive bag, arguing that her husband was already wealthy before entering government.
However, he questioned whether the luxury item was consistent with Obi’s public image of prudence, particularly his claims that he owns only one pair of shoes and one watch.

Reacting to the comments, MC Lively also challenged the growing argument among some Nigerians that they would not support Peter Obi because of the behaviour of his supporters.
He argued that Nigerians have legitimate reasons to express their frustration over issues including insecurity, fuel prices and years of perceived neglect, and said it was unfair to use the conduct of some supporters as a reason to dismiss Obi’s political candidacy.
