A Nigerian man, identified as Emmanuel Emju, has shared a rather controversial take about polygamy that has sparked mixed reactions online.

Emmanuel, in a post shared via his Facebook page, stated that a man is a failure if he hasn’t considered taking a second wife after at least five years of being married to a woman.

According to him, it’s preposterous for a man to have never contemplated the idea of marrying a second wife.

He, however, clarified that he is not forcing men to choose polygamy but believes it is for the betterment of society if they marry more than one wife.”

His post reads,

“If you have been married to one lady for 5 years and you haven’t thought the needs to get a second wife, you are failing as a man.

No one is forcing you to marry more than one wife.. you are only being told what would be better for you and the society. Marry a second wife and stop following undergraduate girls here and there”

It has crossed my mind many times

Forceful words. Very forceful, tasteless, classless and meaningless.

it required deep though to overcome

What has the number of wives he marries got to do with a man's success or failure. It is you that is thinking of marrying another woman that has failed to be the man you ought to be in your house

Ok

Men are losing their sanity every damn day and it's not funny. It's hard to see a sane man lately and it's not funny again.


Polygamy has never done any man any good right from inception, rather it will cost you a lot.

Simp!

How about your wife getting a second husband?
Do to others what you wish upon yourself. If you can't stand it, another surely can't stand it.

Make she go get 2nd husband na.

Who will live with the stigma? Me or her?

Remove sex from humanity and watch how men will commit suicide.

Whatever happened to marrying one wife and sticking to that one.

As a Nigerian man, ask him about the health insurance plan he already has that covers him, his wife and children and the provision he is making to extend to the second wife, ask him of the life assurance policy he has taken that will protect his family with financial support when he dies......selective mutism will set in!.

You mean most Nigerian men,abi?

Second wife and possibly more children in this Tinubu's administration. Seems he's addicted to poverty.

Both of you. Oil go always stain both the person wey throw am and the person e stain

Of all the problems in Nigeria that this nuisance can come up with solutions for, na useless polygamy that's already practiced and that does no good other than overpopulating the already overly-populated country he's advocating for. Well, e no concern me, as it's a criminal offense over here, thankfully. Y'all can continue with your misplaced priorities and remain backwards with your rubbish practices while developed countries keep zooming by.

Forceful words. Very forceful, tasteless, classless and meaningless...

I would rather cheat on my wife than bringing in another woman into our matrimonial home. I have to give her that respect. It is not easy to manage one woman talkless of managing two. As man if you don't want to die before your time pls don't have two wives

What stigma?
So there is a stigma when a woman marries more than one husband
But non exist when a man marries more than one wife?

Keep asking ... One day you'll get answers.

You obviously lack a solid response.
Double standard practice in our culture such as this, will not do us any good.

True👌

Klass99:


Really? Why?

Are you sex starved or feeling neglected because wifey is more focused on kids?

A second wife means more bills, more stress and strain. Can you keep up?

🤣🤣
@ XAUBulls is this user right or wrong?

"That's Interesting... You asked two pretty valid questions up there."

First off, how's it going @Klass99? It's been a while.
Yup! Indeed, it can lead to "suicide."

But seriously speaking, most men are wired to think of having multiple women [WHO CAN give them near-absolute peace of mind and companionship], because they [men] are visual creatures and they have raging hormones at younger ages [i.e., from below 65 years of age].

Institutionalized laws in some Western countries to regulate polygamy and the state of the economy in traditional societies have curtailed men from having multiple female lovers or wives in their lives.

For some men who have reached a state of mental ascendancy, they just want to be with one woman in a long-term relationship... or even get married to none.

I hope this helps.

Take care.
