Lady's advice to women
The lady addressed her fellow women via a TikTok video that was shared by @nps254 has since gone viral, and she said women should stop fighting men because polygamy is a normal thing.
"If his parents do not fight over him, who are you to fight over a married man? So when a man decides he wants to marry, pray that he will get a good wife and one who together you can support and help each other," she said.
The unidentified Kenyan lady also said that it was high time women should stop fighting each other over men and instead switch gears to fighting over education, work, promotion and other better things.
"Polygamy is there, we accept it, we refuse it, we deny it. It is there. Even the Christian men should stop hiding and going home to their wives, yet they have a side chic somewhere. That is no solution. Introduce them and let them know each other,'' she added.
