: The First Lady factory: How to turn boyfriends into election losses
By Someone Who Actually Believes Women Can Be Presidents, Not Just Wives of Presidents
So let me get this straight.
South Sudanese women with their dramatic attention seeking, I saw lady calling herself a role model standing during International Women Day declaring that "I will not date or marry any man who doesn't dream of becoming president. I want to be First Lady."
And I saw people claping for her that they got a role model for our daughters, Ooh, my goodness!
The Logic (Or Lack Thereof)
She wants to be First Lady. Just like that. No degree required. No experience necessary. No manifesto. No policy. Just... a man who dreams big, and she rides that dream like a stolen horse all the way to State House. Ooh, what a dependence mentality!
But here's the problem, Our first lady in waiting:
What happens when the man fails?
Because statistically speaking, out of 10 men who dream of presidency, maybe 0.5 actually make it. The rest? They lose primaries. They lose elections. They lose interest. They lose their minds.
So if her goal is "marry a president to be" and her boyfriend doesn't become one... what's the move?
Divorce.
Find another dreamer.
And another.
And another.
Welcome to the Presidential Dating Revolving Door
Imagine this woman's life:
Husband one: "I will be president!" ...Loses election. Divorced.
Husband two: "I have a vision!" ...Drops out due to lack of funds. Divorced.
Husband three: "This time for Africa!" ...Gets arrested for treason. Divorced.
Husband four: Actually wins! Finally, she's First Lady! ...For three months until he is impeached. Divorced.
By Husband seven, she's not a wifeāshe's a political consultant who sleeps with her clients. And still no permanent First Lady title.
At what point does she realize that maybeājust maybeāshe should have just run for president herself?
The "Free Things" Addiction
Our South Sudanese ladies and free things, eh?
This isn't gold-digging. Gold-digging is finding a rich man. This is nation-digging. She wants the entire country's resourcesājets, state banquets, diplomatic passports, immunity from traffic finesāall because she said "I do" to the right dreamer.
But here's the kicker: She wants it effortlessly.
No campaign rallies at the dawn. No corrupt donors and supporter to kiss. No debates. No media scrutiny. Just... marry the dream, and the dream might come true. And if it doesn't? Next!
That's not ambition. That's ambition by osmosis. "I want to be somebody, but I don't want to do the work, so I will just stand next to a man who might do the work, and if he fails, I'll find another man."
The Role Model Question
And you all think she's a role model for young girls?
Role model for WHAT exactly?
"How to make marriage a multi-decade job interview for a position you're not even qualified for?"
"How to waste your best years waiting for a man to win something that 99.9% of men never win?"
"How to confuse 'First Lady' with 'First Freeloader'?"
If this is the example we're setting, we might as well teach our daughters:
"Don't build anything, don't even go to school. Just find a man who's building something, stand next to him, and if his building collapses, find another builder."
The Bold Truth
Here's the thingāand I say this with love:
If you want to be First Lady, earn it.
Not by marriage. By service.
Run for something yourself. Advocate for something. Build something. Become someone that a president would be proud to have as a partner, not just a passenger.
Because right now? This whole "I only date presidential material" thing isn't ambition.
It's just a very slow, very expensive, very embarrassing way to collect divorce certificates while the whole country laughs.
And our young sisters deserve better mentorship than that.
They deserve to dream of being presidentānot just president's wife.
Final Word
To the ladies: Dream bigger. Run yourself. Or at least, if you're going to chase a man's dream, be ready to cry with him when it failsānot divorce him and find another. To the men: We never disapoint our manhood, if she asks on the first date "So, do you dream of being president?"... just say yes, enjoy the free meal, and block her number immediately.
Because nobody needs that kind of pressure.
