Nigerian comedian Okey Bakassi has stirred controversy by declaring that polygamy is the best form of marriage for Africa, arguing that monogamy is not working. On the *Honest Bunch Podcast*, Bakassi criticized the practice of monogamy, claiming that many individuals are pretending to be happy in such marriages.
He compared the two marital structures, stating that while monogamy demands individuals choose only one partner, polygamy allows for multiple marriages simultaneously, questioning why anyone would want to let go of a partner. Bakassi’s comments reflect a broader debate on traditional marriage structures in African societies.
