“Under customary law and Mohammedans law Cap 129, a man can marry more than one woman. Under the marriage Ordinance Cap 127, a man is allowed to marry only one woman.

John Dumelo explained that his post was meant to be a question but he finished posting it before realising it was a statement hence the need to pull it down immediately.

When asked if his wife’s comments on the post influenced his decision to delete the post, John responded saying;

” Before I shared the post, I showed it to my wife and told her I was going to post it. She was aware of it but as expected, she “dealt” with me later on at home. She showed me her typical “Ayigbe” woman side”.

John Dumelo also made reference to his previous post about the decriminalisation of the use of marijuana and others to back his case.
