Billionaire politician and businessman Ned Nwoko has sparked fresh debate over polygamy, using legendary Nigerian musician 2Baba (formerly 2Face Idibia) as an example of true African masculinity.
Nwoko, known for his outspoken support of polygamy, described 2Baba as the real representation of the African man, stating that success is not just about wealth but also the number of wives and children a man has.
He emphasized that a man’s family stands at the forefront of his success, commending 2Baba for embracing this traditional view of masculinity.
The former senator also pointed out how 2Baba’s recent proposal to Natasha Akide, which he did without kneeling, reflects a return to authentic African marriage customs.
He believes this act aligns with traditional values, rejecting Western influences on African relationships.
According to Nwoko, polygamy is the key to balance in society. He argued that since women outnumber men, allowing multiple wives can help reduce fornication and ensure social stability.
His statement has reignited conversations on polygamy, marriage expectations, and the role of tradition in modern relationships.
While some agree with his perspective, others maintain that monogamy remains the ideal structure for family life.
The debate continues: Is polygamy truly a solution to societal issues like infidelity, or is monogamy still the better option?
