I Fight My Fight Without Reporting Anyone to My Husband – Oluremi Tinubu

"Gist"

The Senator representing Lagos Central Senatorial District and wife of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Oluremi Tinubu says she does not need to report anyone to her husband before taking any action.

She told TVC breakfast show, ‘Your View’ on Friday that her reason is because her husband has habit of telling her she is wrong even when she knows she is right.

For that reason, she has learnt to fight and defend herself. According to her, “That you have a position doesn’t mean you have to lose yourself to that position, because the position will go and then, do you go back and find yourself ? You have to be yourself in every situation.

“Most of the time, when people see me talk strongly, yes, yes I am Asiwaju’s wife but Asiwaju is somebody that I don’t go home to report everyone to because he will tell me ‘you are wrong.’ I don’t know why but when you have a husband who tells you, ‘you are wrong’ when you are right, in your own view, would you go back to such a person ? So, I do my own fight when I have to, especially in what I believe in.”
