A man got married to two women, Safiya Tanimu Nasidi and Maryam on the same day, with both weddings held at different mosques in Niger State.
Umar Sani, as the young man is called, said that his polygamous background had a major role to play in his choice of two wives. He also shared that he always wanted to marry more than one wife, maybe three or even four.
His parents were however shocked at his choice to marry more than one wife at once, but they remained supportive.
