A newly-wedded man, Umar Sani, has explained how he feels marrying two wives on the same day.
Mr Sani got married to Safina and Maryam on Friday, March 3, 2023 in Minna, Niger State.
Speaking with Tsalle Dayya, he said: “I feel as if I have been given a space in paradise, I’m extremely grateful to Allah and my joy is immeasurable.
I thank God I’m happily married to two brides. Both of them are understanding, and I’m grateful for that.
A lot of people have thought there would be issues from either of them, but God in his wisdom, has made things perfect.”
Mr Umar revealed that his decision was inspired by his polygamous family background.
According to him, “Since I was 10, I saw my father having four wives and I saw the way they lived peacefully. I made a promise to myself that I would marry more than one wife if I had my way, or marry three or four same day.
My parents were surprised because even my father didn’t marry two wives on the same day. But they didn’t oppose it. The most important thing for us right now is to have a peaceful home.”
