Nigerian comedian and actor, Okechukwu Anthony Onyegbule, popularly known as Okey Bakassi, has expressed his belief that polygamy is the most suitable form of marriage for Africa.
In his view, monogamy is failing, with many individuals only pretending to be content in such unions.
Bakassi shared his perspective during an appearance on the Honest Bunch Podcast.
He said, “Forget all the lip services that we pay to polygamy here. I still think that polygamy is the best form of marriage for Africa. Monogamy is not working.
“We are pretending. Now, what’s the difference between polygamy and monogamy? Polygamy says you can marry two people at the same time. Monogamy says you cannot marry them at the same time, you have to let one go. What if you don’t want to let one go?”
