Successful women should consider polyandry if it meets their needs – Okey Bakassi

Nigerian actor Okey Bakassi has sparked debate by advocating for polyandry as an option for successful women, arguing it could address unmet emotional and sexual needs in monogamous marriages.

Speaking on Hnest Brunch, he called for a reevaluation of traditional African values over Western marital norms, asserting that polygamy historically aligns with African culture.

Okey criticized the adoption of foreign practices, including monogamy and homosexuality, suggesting they erode African identity.

He argued that Africans often mimic Western trends without considering their relevance, emphasizing the need to protect cultural traditions.
