Why my father married 30 wives – Gov Nwifuru

Governor Nwifuru said his father was once humiliated by his relatives, neighbourhoods, and the entire community as he was excelling above his equals due to his prospering farming business.

According to the governor, it was based on his villagers maltreatment or intimidation that isolated his father.

This led him into marrying many wives for companionship and helping hands in pursuit of his dreams as a wealthy farmer.
Nonsensical reason!


Your father has a high fckatitude! That's all!

The Governor's father is a very bad example!
108 children, with only 25 who had to struggle so hard with their mother to put themselves through school.

Thank God his son became the governor, and he's now the king, and I hope with his increased salary and wealth he can support some of his other children through school and trade, which is highly unlikely, as a matter of fact he's most likely to take other wives than supporting the wives and kids he has now.

The father is a very selfish human being, 30 wives for companionship because he was ostracize by the community... This is absurd!
The bolded is true and Very likely to happen, emphasis on "Likely"

If he doesn't do it, will you do it?
Other people use their position to better their families and his own shouldn't be an exception.
Biden pardoned his son even though he was convicted for crimes.
Buhari's son without any job was crashing bikes worth hundreds of millions.
Tinubu gives govt contracts to his son.

So what's wrong with a son honoring his father?

Let them continue with their yeye autonomous community until one street makes a community.

Almost all those women are starved intimacy in one way or the other. The man is obviously capable but there is a natural limit to what he can do as a human. Besides, there is also farming business and family business(welfare) to attend to.

A century ago this man would not be considered extraordinary, he would have been perfectly normal.

A man was expected to have as many wives and bear lots of children that would carry his name and work for him.

That was until the disease of Christianity infected everybody...

Nowadays you must now marry one wife that is probably not a virgin and raise children that are probably not yours.

God bless the North for not succumbing to such illness.
Nobody stops u from marrying more than one wife na. Some Christians marry more than one. It's a free world. Besides, marrying more than one wife is not the issue. The issue is hope u can and will take care of them accordingly? because according to the governor here, his 24siblings who are graduates like him struggled wit their mothers to see themselves through school. It means papa no send him family.

Due to the tax controversy, some folks said the north bears too many children, the tax will teach them lesson about how to run a family

You could see that all na fallacy


The south self hold sway in bearing children without taking care of them


The man has 108 children, and left the training to their mothers

He will still marry more now, as par new king

You are very ignorant and lack reading ability.

The article said the man took care of all his children and wives and the wives also supported the kids.

Your mama no dey assist your papa to send you money for school ?

You probably had a terrible wicked mother who didn't support your father. Maybe she kept all her money to herself and her sugar boyfriend.

"My father is a loving father and husband, who take care of all his children and wives." He also added

“All his wives and children work hard to train themselves in school and that is why we have 25 graduates in my family who struggled to train themselves with the efforts of their mothers.”

As long as the people supports it, let them do it. Government is about the people after all. If new autonomous community helps drive development and inclusion let it be so.

I swear. He is a shameless man. So many children and he did not bear responsibility of training anyone in school.
He provided the fertile lands for them to farm and train themselves. Give him kudos for that.

This so called modern generation that breed lazy children all because of the mindset of "I don't want my children to suffer like I did". That same mindset of spoon-feeding our offspring everything is the reason why many youths in the western societies are unproductive to the point where their countries now rely on hardworking African and Asians to grow their economies.

If the man provided his children the basics of life like food, shelter, basic education while they worked hard with their mums for higher education, that's not too bad considering the circumstances of that time.

I'm not saying we shouldn't train our children up to higher education level but we must avoid spoon-feeding them everything but raise them to be hard working and self-reliant. It serves them better on the long run.

Not only Absurd but Preposterous at the same time. " Who had to suffer and their mother to trained themselves in school" This speaks volume, I underline that word . I just hope he wont see this as an avenue to marry more wives , what an aberration.
