Basketmouth raises eyebrows as he makes case for polygamy

• Basketmouth shares his view on polygamy.
• The comedian shared cited some instances in the Bible to back his claim.

Popular Nigerian comedian, Basketmouth has raises eyebrows on social media by advocating for polygamy and suggesting that marrying only one wife can lead to downfall.

In a recent Instagram post, Basketmouth cited biblical examples to support his claim, stating that men who had multiple wives found favor with God, while those with only one wife strayed from their faith.

Basketmouth, who ended his 12-year marriage a few months back, listed biblical figures like Ahab, Herod, and Pontius Pilate, who had only one wife and allegedly lost their way and fell out with God.

In contrast, he mentioned Abraham, Jacob, David, and Solomon, who had multiple wives and found favour with the Lord.

However, Basketmouth failed to give a vivid explanation to his post, urging people to express themselves in the comment section instead.

He wrote:

“According to the Holy Bible, Ahab – 1 wife Herod – 1 wife Ananias-1 wife Pontius Pilate – 1 wife Jeroboam – 1 wife Nebuchadnezzar. – 1 wife Haaman – 1 wife Zakayo – 1 wife And they all lost their way and betrayed God.”

He added; “Abraham – 3 wives Jacob – 4 wives David – 4 wives Solomon – 700 wives and 300 concubines Rehoboam – 18 wives Abijah – 14 wives Elkanah – 2 wives Lemech – 2 wives And they all found favour in the eyes of the Lord. Whatever you do with this information is none of my business… However u want to interpret it is your cup of tea but I will be comment session.”
