Veteran Nollywood actor, Prince
Jide Kosoko, has stated that being a polygamist was not his destiny, adding
that he was not supposed to be married to many women judging by his upbringing.
The actor said following the
death of his wife, Henrietta, he was forced to remarry because his house was
gradually turning into a brothel.
Speaking with Punch, the comic
actor said as a human being, he felt bad when some persons accused him of using
his wives for money rituals.
He said God is currently handling
Kemi Olunloyo and others, who tried to rubbish his name.
The script interpreter said, “I
have been blackmailed many times, but I sailed through.
“They have called me a
‘ritualist’ before, which means I am a murderer.
“Initially, as a human being, I
felt bad. But my skin is too thick for all that rubbish. Instead of feeling
bad, I will go on my knees and pray to God to give His judgment.
“And I always see these people
get their judgment. I don’t want to mention names. I don’t know anything about
what is happening to Kemi Olunloyo and I don’t follow her on social media.
Apart from her, there are other people who have rubbished my name in the past
“Becoming a polygamist wasn’t my
design. With my upbringing, I am not supposed to be a polygamist.
“Though my father was a
polygamist, he didn’t marry the number of women I have married.
“My first wife, Sola’s mother,
was working with the Nigerian Customs Service. She was not involved in my
industry and then I would travel for two months.
“So, I was tempted to take a
second wife . But unfortunately for me , in the circumstances I cannot explain
till today, I lost two wives within a year.
“You can imagine that! So, I
decided not to remarry again, though I had girlfriends; I was a ladies ’ man.
“Two of my girlfriends were very
close to the house and my friends too would come with their girlfriends.
“So, we were almost turning the
house into a brothel. Later, my doctor, a lady, visited me and advised me to
remarry.
“She said it was the best for me,
insisting that I was too young to be without a woman. I lost my two wives in
1992 and 1993 respectively, and I was not up to 40 then.
“I agreed to take a wife in the
long run, but I had two women who were intimate with me – Henrietta and Alhaja
Bimbo. Since I couldn’t say no to either of them, I married two wives again.”

ReplyDeleteHey you this is a bad comment! The act of lusting after women, formication and adultery and is not peculiar to any tribe. I'm not a Yoruba man. But I must say that for you to nail this to Yoruba is unfair.
