‘Why I Prefer Polygamous Families ’ – Singer Teni
Nigerian singer Teni whose real name is Teniola Apata has shared her positive experiences of growing up in a polygamous family, and explained why she believes that it can be a loving and supportive environment.
She emphasized the close relationships and shared experiences that she had with her siblings and other family members.
In a podcast interview, Teni reflected on her childhood in a polygamous family, noting that it was a unique and rewarding experience.
She explained that she preferred the dynamics of a polygamous family over those of a monogamous one, highlighting the benefits of having multiple parents and siblings.
She also noted that the diversity of her family made for a richer and more interesting upbringing.
She said: “I grew up in a polygamous family with many people, where you can’t do rubbish. I received a lot of love and protection. Three wives, 10 children. Huge respect to my bloodline! I get along with all of my siblings, though there are levels of closeness.
“Any other way is boring. If I come back to this life again, I want to come to the same family. How can I be in a monogamous house where all of us will be sitting down; no chaos?
“There is love in my family because the person wey born us dey craze sha. Do you know what it is to hear gunshots and go to where the gunshots came from? That’s not normal.
“It was like my father planned his future and his death. So before he died, he taught his wives everything, including how to shoot, and when he passed, they used the skill. That’s how our family is still able to remain intact even after my dad’s death.”
