“Polygamy is not good, but every wise man should not have all his children with one woman.”

“Oga Jide confess 😂. Even ur eyes have seen shege in your own. There’s no sugar-coating it, Poly-is-a-gamy is “dengerlous” like my ana.”

@madambella001 said:

“TALK THAT THING WEY DEY OUR MIND😂😂😂😂😂 I GO BUY YOU JUICE.”

@bchikan said:

“Older men should educate younger men about polygamy instead of condemning it on scripted shows. How can a man who has married multiple wives now say polygamy is bad? If those wives leave, he’ll likely marry again.The truth is, marrying one bad woman can ruin a man’s life, but polygamy can provide balance and security. Men should be honest about their polygamous nature from the start. As a father of two sons, I’ll teach them that polygamy is the best way to protect a man’s well-being. Society should accept it as a practical choice.”
