You
don’t always want to talk about the number of wives and children you
have. Don’t you think that there might be a heavy ‘war’ amongst your
family members when you are gone from this world?

When
King Solomon in the Bible died, there was no issue among his wives and
children. If it didn’t happen in the time of Solomon, it will not happen
in my time. How many kids do I even have? How many women have I known?
There are so many people out there who even have more than we can ever
think of. It is on record that Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines.
If somebody like Solomon wasn’t crucified during his time, why do you
have to talk about me? How many women have I ever touched? How many
children do I have? Before you talk about me, let people talk about King
Solomon.

But that was during the Old Testament…
Well, it might be that another King Solomon has come. I might be another King Solomon in the making.
Doesn’t it bother you when people talk and reel out such scandals about you marrying your ex-wife’s relative?
It
doesn’t make any meaning to me. Do you read the Bible very well? The
Bible contains a lot of things even for generations yet to come to learn
something from. The Bible is a book of life. Talking about my personal
life doesn’t make any meaning. If you start tracing the lineage of some
people, you would even find out that some men may have married their
sisters and nothing happened. It is not a big deal. If they didn’t kill
them then, why would somebody talk about my marrying my ex-wife’s niece
and such jargons? It doesn’t make any meaning. Life is about what suits
you. I don’t want to be citing examples but the Bible has taught us so
many things.

Do you regret being a polygamist?
No
way! I don’t have any regret at all. I was born into it. I practise it
very well and I am enjoying it. That it didn’t or doesn’t work well for
some people doesn’t mean I should complain about it. My marriage is
beautiful. I am enjoying my marriage with Fathia. She gives me joy and
she gives me reason to be thankful.

So she doesn’t mind that women are all around you?
Every
woman married to a man in my kind of profession should understand the
nature of the job. Fathia, my wife, is just the lucky one. She is lucky
she is the one I have pronounced. So many women are out there and they
want me to pronounce and profess such to them. But she is the chosen
one. I am proud to say she is my love. She earns it. She gives me
support and understanding.
