Alibaba, the comedian, has said that he believes in having more than one wife.
This is what he said in an interview with TV personality Nedu.
Alibaba said that having more than one wife can help keep the peace in the home because it makes people more likely to work together and less likely to fight.
"Some people think that if you only have one wife, you might not be able to stop her," he said. "But if the wife knows you have more than one, she will calm down because she knows there is someone else she can talk to if she acts up."
He also talked about how in the past, women in places like Ibadan would sometimes push their husbands to marry more wives to keep the family together and stop cheating.
"I know a woman in Ibadan who pushed her husband to have more than one wife." "Back then, most of them would marry a young girl and give her to their husband as a gift because they didn't want their husband to have concubines," he said.
Alibaba also talked about traditional practices in which women with young children would sometimes marry a brother-in-law to take care of the kids. This, he said, was another way that polygamy could help society.
In the end, he said that he understood that not everyone agreed with polygamy, but he still believed that it was a useful and culturally important practice in some situations.
