His shared post has sparked emotions amongst netizens and was brutally dragged for his comment about polygamy.
A user replied, ‘They didn’t convince Africans. They are just preaching what they believe because they live by it in their country too.’
Another wrote, ‘First of all, America never said polygamy was a sin, but rather that it is a crime. Maybe if you understood basic consent and the fact that legal marriage comes with social, legal and economic benefits in developed countries you would understand that there is no basis for comparing homosexuality with polygamy.’
‘Other Continents are competing in technology and innovation. African men problem na to get as much Toto as possible,’ another wrote.
Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Akanbi has been married to multiple women over the course of his reign as the ruler of the ancient Yoruba kingdom Iwo.
