A Nigerian woman has sparked massive reactions after openly celebrating her husband’s decision to marry another wife in hopes of having male children.
In a TikTok video posted on her official account, @necheluv23, the mother of three girls was seen dancing joyfully while sharing her perspective on the situation.
She explained that after giving birth to three daughters, her husband expressed the desire to take a second wife who might bear him sons. Rather than reacting bitterly, she said she felt relief and support for his decision.
“POV: My husband decided to marry a second wife to give him a heir apparent after I gave him 3 girls. At least I don try. Proud mummy girls. I’m glad he finally decided to take a second wife! At least that one will give him like 3 heirs in one day. Let me rest. I love this division of labor,” she captioned the video.
Her playful attitude and joyful dancing to background music have since gone viral, drawing mixed reactions from social media users. While some applauded her confidence and sense of humour, others criticised her husband’s decision and the societal pressure placed on women to produce male children.
The video has continued to trend, with many describing her as an example of strength and self-acceptance in the face of cultural expectations.
