Tersugh Aondona, a 26-year-old man from Benue, has unveiled the motivation behind his decision to marry three wives simultaneously, causing a stir on social media when news of his triple nuptials on January 31, 2024, surfaced.
Aondona, a resident of Jato-Aka
in the Kwande Local Government Area of the middle belt State, shared that his
substantial ownership of expansive farmland, primarily dedicated to rice, yam,
and cassava cultivation, influenced his choice to embark on a polygamous union.
During an interview, Aondona
disclosed that his father's encouragement also played a role in his inclination
towards having multiple wives. He expressed that his familial experiences
shaped his perspective on marital relationships.
To avoid potential conflicts
and foster harmony, Aondona explained that marrying three women simultaneously
was a strategic decision. He clarified that the complexity of managing his vast
farm prompted him to seek assistance from each prospective wife, a fact he made
clear to them before the unions.
Highlighting the challenges
faced by those attempting sequential marriages, Aondona stated, "I noticed
that it was challenging to marry another woman after being married to one
already. It often leads to conflicts." Drawing from his brother's
experience, he shared that marrying the women concurrently was a deliberate
choice to maintain peace at home and ensure amicable relationships among the
wives.
He emphasized that marrying
them on the same day was a preemptive measure to avoid potential conflicts and
enmity. Aondona concluded by asserting his commitment to reminding the wives of
their initial agreements should any misbehavior arise.
This unconventional marital
arrangement has ignited discussions about traditional practices, family
dynamics, and the evolving nature of relationships in contemporary society.
