about his life, triumphs, profession and challengesI was born on February 19, 1939, in Orerokpe – headquarters of the then Western Niger Delta – in present-day Delta State.

My birth was historical and the record was known by many people in that part of the community. My father’s cousin, who was a teacher then, recorded my date of birth in a diary.My birth was a little bit controversial because my mother told my father she was pregnant but my father did not believe her. They quarreled over it. My mother knew she was pregnant but the pregnancy did not show and because of that, my father was not ready to help her.

When we were in Standard Three, something funny happened. Our class teacher – a very corrupt person – said pupils who wanted to be promoted to Standard Four must give him a chicken each. I told my father and he said he did not send me to school to give chickens to teachers. He did not give me any chicken.We took the promotion examination. On the day the results were to be announced, mine was not read out meaning that I failed.

When I got home, I told my father and he said he had no money. I realised our neighbour was a money lender so I asked him to borrow money from him. My father reluctantly agreed. We went to the money lender and asked him to lend us money to be repaid three months later. He gave me the money on trust. I went to pay and I was given the job. I was sent to Aghalokpe. I taught there for eight months and then my father died.I was a young man of 19 then.

When I returned to Nigeria, I was made a vice principal and finally I was sent to the Ministry of Education. I was there and retired as a senior officer – Principal Grade 1.The sad story is that when I was at Baptist Teachers’ College, I was young and we lived together. I persuaded her to stay. We agreed she was going to wait for me. She was carried away by a white man who was in charge of the local government council. After the white man left, his messenger took over and I had to leave her.

He will surely regret, since he fails to learn what it takes to have more than a wife. And I'm sure those women he married are the end product of adultery. You can't find peace of mind with wife gotten from adultery

And you are still inside o!

He should look all the children from the other wives in the eyes and told them he regretted bringing them to the world.

Thanks Sir for opening up. So our young men can learn. Open ya eyes, pray and let God lead you. No go marry woman sake of say she carry big yansh and balloons, come find out later say na winch 🙄🙄🙄

Accept your fate. Everything written for you acted. Don't regret. Just show appreciation to Almighty God for journey so far.

I don't blame him he did them a favor by reducing them in number, go to any church or gathering and see what I'm talking about, women are much on this Earth, m I am marrying 12

👀👀👀 ehh? And I'm planning to marry 12

At 80?

Kindly go and marry more sir.

No no no. Don't say that! We told you since, but you were adamant. But we for long have known the beauty of poligamy.

Oga marry more, you go born village
