“Polygamy Is the Best Form of Marriage for Africa” – Okey Bakassi
Nigerian comedian and actor Okechukwu Anthony Onyegbule, popularly known as Okey Bakassi, has started a conversation about marriage in Africa.
While appearing on the Honest Bunch Podcast, he openly expresses his belief that polygamy is a more suitable marital structure for Africans, arguing that the concept of monogamy has not been effective for many people on the continent.
Bakassi suggested that numerous individuals are merely putting on a facade of happiness in monogamous marriages.
He points out that societal pressures often force people to adhere to this structure, even when it does not align with their personal realities or desires.
Sharing his perspective, Bakassi mentions, “We need to be honest about polygamy and stop treating it as taboo in Africa.
I believe polygamy aligns better with our cultural and societal framework. Monogamy is failing because it forces people into a restrictive system that doesn’t work for everyone.
When we compare the two, polygamy allows someone to be married to multiple people simultaneously, while monogamy demands letting one person go if you wish to be with another.
But what if both partners matter to you, and you don’t want to choose?”
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
