Must A King Marry More Than One Wife? by Foreigner: 9:12am On Feb 11, 2008
Hi, I heard that it is compulsory for a king in Nigeria to marry more than one wife. Is this true and is it still being practiced today, considering the fact that some of the royalties are overseas educated? Please let me hear your views. Thanks.

If it is a must for them, then it is of no wonder that some of the princes choose to stay out of the country as they do not wish to do so.

That is his business. As long as there are women eager and willing enough to fill those roles, I really do not have a problem with it. Like a said, I believe in the power of choice and freedom of expression.

That is their business, frankly got nothing to do with me. kiss
