A man has revealed that it is his utmost desire to marry more wives despite that he already has 12.
The unidentified man, who is proudly a polygamist, in an Instagram video shared by @kingtundeednut, said he started with one wife but considered polygamy after his financial status experienced a turnaround.
His eldest wife who had lived with him for 16 years described him as a loving and caring man. She said she was surprised the day he informed her of his decision to bring in another wife but consented.
Interestingly, he usually told the new wives at the point of bringing them in that he already had other wives, and they usually have no problem with it.
In a similar fashion, most of the ladies hinged their decision to go on with marrying him due to the love they had for him.
The man who started out as a local shoemaker before he rose to become the number one traditional medicine man in the country said he has spiritual powers that ensure any run-away wife returns.
The polygamist who is unmoved by people's opinion about him lives happily with the women in the same house.
Mixed comments have however trailed the video.
