A Chronicle Of Polygamous Brouhaha

 This is the true life story of man who desired a wonderful home with just one wife but ended up with five wives......

Yes five wives that lived under the same roof with him and the children. Could it be coincidence, ordained by man or God? Would it have been prevented? You can imagine the drama.

He was a good man with a large that want things and people around him to succeed and be relevant in life. Chief or Oga as he was fondly called by people was an influential man who believe so much in education and hard work.

After the early demise of his parents, he decided to start up his own family by getting married to this beautiful yellow sisi by the name Elizabeth. The first child that God blessed them with was a boy then followed by plenty girls. This didn’t go down well with Oga because he wanted sons and not plenty daughters. Who will take care of his wealth and other business ventures? Meanwhile, Elizabeth the first wife brought in a maid Queen to help her take care of the plenty children. This very girl was so young and beautiful- ebony black beauty, oga could not resist the temptation and before you will say jack she became pregnant.

Trouble started and Elizabeth insisted that Queen must leave but oga had a different opinion. No way, my seed must not be sent out. In fact, I am getting married to her. That was how wife number two entered. She carried her pregnancy to full term and surprisingly, it was another girl instead of a boy. Then came the second and third and all were girls.


Na him, oga enter market to search for wife number three. Eventually, he got one. She was quite endowed back and front, tall, huge and beautiful. Helen gave birth and it was another girl. Hmmmmmm!!!!! What is going on?


In the process, the younger brother of Oga was searching for a wife and oga opted to help him get a good wife. He got one and packaged her to the brother. Ha!!!! No way, I can’t marry this woman, why? She’s too ugly. Do you want my children to resemble junior gorilla? Na him oga said my money and expenses paid on top of this woman head cannot go to waste. I can convert you to be my wife, will you marry me? Yes and that was how marriage with the wife number four commenced. Pat room’s was given to her.

Pat conceived and gave birth to a baby boy. Hmmmmm!! Now, you are talking. When the third wife, Helen could not bear more children she decided to marry herself a wife. Yes, you heard me well. A woman paying dowry on the head of another woman then give the bride to the husband to be bearing children from the husband but the children will belongs to her.


She got a young girl and promised her wonderful future with the marriage proposal to have children on her behalf from her husband which she accepted. She was handed over to Oga for his pleasure and to make sure she conceive and bear male children. Angela conceived and gave birth to a baby girl but it did not go down well with her supposed “husband woman” who wanted a baby to be able to take her root in the family especially when she couldn’t bear children again. Along the line she sent her packing but took the daughter from her.


Oga, decided to do the needful. He returned the bride price paid by his third wife to her and re-married Angela then brought her back home. Her own room was equally given to her.


The genesis of untold sorrow, affliction, witch hunting, competition, envy, rivalry, strife and acrimony, divulging into diabolical means have just started and you won’t imagine what went down.
