"It's unwise how PeteEdochie isn't doing anything abt his sons remarrying 2nd wife.More unwise how ppl aren't done with Yul's sudden 2nd wife,now Linc has added brand new 2nd wife ru!ning his 1-man-1-wife legacy.He can't be alive yet watch this happens.Sad many saying he can't interfer in grown up sons' decisions but will sure interfer if it's his daughter that wants to marry 2 or more husbands.He has 48hrs to end this polygamy ruining his home,legacy else,.Só unwise."
