84-Year-Old Nigerian Guy Has 86 Wives, 170 Children
Nigerian Mohammed Bello Abubakar is 84 years old. He has 86 wives and 170 children.
The wives the BBC spoke to say they met Mr Bello Abubakar when they went to him to seek help for various illnesses, which they say he cured.
“As soon as I met him the headache was gone,” says Sharifat Bello Abubakar, who was 25 at the time and Mr Bello Abubakar 74.
“God told me it was time to be his wife. Praise be to God I am his wife now.”
Ganiat Mohammed Bello has been married to the man everyone calls “Baba” for 20 years.
Why is does it sound like some gongtao (降头) to me? It is even amazing to read how he “feed” his whole family:
According to one of his wives, Mr Bello Abubakar sometimes asks his children to go and beg for 200 naira ($1.69, £0.87), which if they all did so would bring in about $290 (£149).
Some guys just have the luck all the time.
