@ksolo_hitz commented:
"Wetin go make me marry 5 wives with the kind problem wey dey the country."
@quietunusual1 reacted:
"When you hear men saying they are polygamous in nature, they are just looking for different holes to be sleeping around. Most of them lack mental capacity to handle one woman. Meanwhile, marriage and relationship is not compulsory and sometimes overated. If you cannot commit, remain single and flex."
@fabricsby_laurel said:
"She writes so eloquently and so sound..I commend her writing ability."
@sax21217 shared:
"If one relationship needs work, adding another won’t fix it I just hope will learn from Mr Ibu's case now before it is too late."
