‘Men With Many Wives Live Longer Than Those With Just One’- 91-year Old Man by Nobody: 12:24pm On Jan 08, 2018
A ninety-one-year-old elder statesman, in Yakasai town of Kano State, Tanko Yakasai, has declared that men with two wives or more live longer than those with only one woman in their lives.

Yakasai, who have many wives and children, believes its even monopoly that reduces life expectancy.

Asked what he does differently in an interview with Punch, the 91-year-old statesman, who had lived his life as a journalist, said,

“Those who believe that polygamy reduces life expectancy are wrong! They are not speaking from experience .

“Many factors influence life expectancy . In some countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, etc, there is the problem of poverty and illiteracy.”

Yakasai, who served jail terms during the Abacha and Babangida regimes, added, “Because of that, people are not able to take care of their children well.

“I read an article on WhatsApp written by an expert . The article notes that those who practise polygamy live longer than those who practise monogamy . I agree.

Asked how he manages the rivalry among his numerous wives, he continued, “This is our culture.

“It depends on who they are . Sometimes, they manage to live together peacefully but sometimes , they quarrel among themselves . From my experience, what often leads to such a quarrel is the inability or refusal of the younger ones to submit to the leadership of the older ones.

“But in some cases, they live peacefully with one another, such that you would not believe that they are married to the same husband.”

Make una put camera for that house without their knowledge and watch the drama that unfolds. The secrete is to get women who value you more alive than dead. If one of those 100 wives consider you more valuable when dead, you will not survive wether you marry her alone or marry her as wife number 100

Very true. Have you wondered why our forefathers live up to 100+? They had many wives unlike us with one wife. Konji wasn't a problem then the way it is now.

Upon all that, they still cheat. Step sisters and brothers everywhere. grin

Don't marry if you want to live long. Marriage is alien to our nature as animals. We are forcing the thing on ourselves and the hurts that go with it.

We can procreate without marriage for Pete's sake!
