Bastard husband marrying another with a wife and kids alive. Why aren't there certificate of previous marriage.

Polygamy is not a crime in Nigeria. The man should have done the honourable thing of letting his first wife know that he is taking a second wife. No one would kill him. I hate men that are weak.

That's always the truth. They will never tell the first wife. They just want to sneak out and do the evil they know how to do best.

LoL I don't blame the wife for taking such actions. These are some of the reasons why people look down on men.

Yeah it is not a good thing at all. You no longer wants your marriage fine and good just end things amicably and move on

Marriage was supposed to be a life time deal, but these days we now have people running out of marriage for the most silliest reasons.

That's true. Some people just need to fix themselves but no they believe that another person can fix them so they keep jumping in and out of marriages

Well said, you got it. When I experienced my first breakup, I was reading lots of things, and one thing I came across was if you cannot love yourself, no one can love you, if you cannot make yourself happy on your own, your partner won't be able to do so. People are having issues because they have not healed themselves, then they expect their partners to do it for them.

What is the crime they are arresting the man for? The police authorities did the right thing to release the man. I still believed he should have told his first wife. She didn't have to agree.
