My dad married another wife just weeks after I, his first child, was born — Nigerian woman reveals

A Nigerian lady, Safinah Omotolani, has revealed that her father married another wife weeks after she was born.  She disclosed this after an X user claimed that Yoruba men are not as brutal as their counterparts when it comes to polygamy. The X user stated this after a Nigerian businessman, Scholar, took a second wife nine months after he married his first wife and one week after she gave birth to a set of twins. Dey play. My dad married another wife just weeks after I was born his first child. (the woman was present at my naming ceremony) Imagine a woman was still bleeding, still healing, still learning how to be a mother and her husband was already moving on, Safinah wrote. "That pain didnt end that day. It lived with us. Big shoutout to my mum. A woman who buried her dreams, swallowed her tears, and stayed for her child. And to the men who see nothing wrong in this kind of cruelty, who lack empathy and call it Sunnah e mura si. May life teach you empathy the hard way.   The post My dad married another wife just weeks after I, his first child, was born Nigerian woman reveals appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
