A Nigerian man identified as A B Rar has articulated his rationale for marrying a second wife, asserting that women need to recognize the 'reality' that men are inherently inclined to polygamy.
He made these comments following another individual's grievance about his wife's invasive behavior regarding his phone.
A B Rar expressed that his decision to marry a second wife was in response to his first wife's severe jealousy, claiming she regarded him as her property.
"To restore balance, I opted for a second wife. She was upset, yet had to accept her sister in this arrangement. I now enjoy my freedom without facing incessant questions and the demand for explanations. Women should acknowledge this truth that men have a natural tendency toward polygamy," he stated.
In response to A B Rar's comments, relationship counselor Shamseddin Giwa countered that the motivations behind his marriage were misguided, stating, "I’m sorry, but this reasoning doesn’t hold up. Jealousy is a human emotion and, while it should be moderated, it's a common occurrence. You married another woman for the wrong reasons. If you doubt this, ask the second wife how she feels about being chosen merely to diminish the first wife's jealousy," Giwa advised.
He further elaborated, "The sense of freedom you claim to feel is misleading; it's merely a decline in the affection you used to receive, suggesting that they are distancing themselves emotionally."
"I sympathize with you, but this situation is not something to celebrate. It should concern you. Accountability is a significant aspect of being a responsible husband," Giwa continued.
He concluded with, "Ultimately, men choose to be polygamous; it's not dictated by nature. Take care of your wives and begin mending the relationships now. I wish you the best in this matter."
