Akpove Blessing, who rocked social media last week with his poster of his marrying two wives on Sunday, August 15, 2021, has said in the absence of riches, men should marry more wives to enjoy life.
He made the assertion exclusively to Tribune Online on Sunday at Lagos-Igbide, Isoko South Local Government Area, Delta State, where the wedding took place.
Akpove, who is 33 years old, added that although he is not rich, he married the two wives in order to have an alternative when one is not ready for conjugal activity.
He said although the two wives already had six children (four boys and two girls) for him, the Sunday ceremony was the official payment of their bride price.
“My first wife is the one that they brought to me first. I married two wives because I love to marry two women.
“I married two so that if one shuns me when I request for sex, I can easily go to the second wife. My father didn’t marry more than one,” he noted.
He admonished men to marry as many wives as possible rather than running after side chicks and endanger their lives.
“Regarding cheating, that’s why it’s good to marry as many as possible. I don’t want to behave like those politicians who keep their wives at home and go after side chicks to satisfy their appetite.
“They bear my name. We live together. They have children already. I started dating them at different times. I’m a farmer. Only God is blessing me to care for them. With little work, God helps me.
“One of them is a hairdresser and the other a nurse. They’re not really rich. I wish I can be empowered to cater for them: such as making me minister of women affairs. That could help.
“It’s a burden to marry two. But if you’re not rich to enjoy life, the other thing that can make you happy is women. If you’re rich and your manhood is not functioning, anger will take over you.
“My friends love it. They encourage me. Though they do not marry two wives. I’ll keep encouraging my wives that things will be better. Both have two boys and one girl each. So both have given me four boys, two girls.
“To manage them is in God’s hands. I’m a Christian, but not a man of God. Solomon had several. I only have two. I believe God will help me to care for them. If one shuns me, I go to the other for solace. I love them equally. I’ll have both of them by my side for our honeymoon in the hotel room,” he disclosed.
One of the wives, which he addressed as the first one, Oghenekome Okoro alias Kome, however, said she would not be pleased if her husband goes for more wives.
“I like my husband marrying two of us. I know that if my second cooperates with me, we’ll live peacefully. We don’t envy each other.
“I’ve known my husband for 12 years. It’s not a big thing to marry two wives. Instead of having side chicks like even some pastors do, is it not better to marry two wives?
“I won’t allow him to marry another wife again. We two are enough for him,” she quipped.
