Who is the Men with many wives in the world?
Thursday, January 10th, 2008This men, Mohammed Bello Abubakar from Nigeria is something because he has 86 wives at the age of 84. when ask by BBC about his action to married so many wives, here is his quote:
“A man with 10 wives would collapse and die, but my own power is given by Allah(god). That is why I have been able to control 86 of them”
Mohammed Bello Abubakar now live in Niger with 170 children, I wonder how he manage to remember all his children names. In this 21st century we still can find this kind of story that we think only exist in the Era of Ming Dynasty where such king can marry any women he like. This man really full of juice and stamina. More about this stamina guy here.
In Africa some chief tribe actually have more than 1 wife. For example at Cameroon there is chief tribe who have 50 wives and hundred of children. With this huge family in Cameroon it represent the status of a wealthy man. But the hidden story is wife will do chores and other job to find money for the family thus the husband also will benefit from it. More about Cameroon chief tribe with many wives story here.
