The Chief Executive Officer of Angel Group of Companies, Dr Kwaku Oteng in an interview with Vaults Magazine has made some comments that have people in awe.
According to the business magnate, keeping multiple wives than side chicks (concubines) gives more blessings.
He’s is of the view that it’s prudent to have wives than concubines because he sees no scripture that talks against polygamy moreover, it’s a blessing and gives peace of mind.
The Adonko boss also added that based on what he has gone through in life, it has become his conception to cater for children he fathers out of a marriage and make such women his wives.
Kweku Oteng wondered why men will keep secret relationships in the name of obeying the teaching of the Bible.
He emphasized that he takes much pride when he fathers a child with a woman and makes it known to the public.
Whilst dropping his thoughts in the interview with Vaults Magazine, the popular Ghanaian Millionaire advised that for a man to have peace he should marry more than one wife.
Dr Oteng recounted some examples of people from the Bible who married more than one wife yet turned out to be a blessing, making them successful in buttressing his point.
“Currently, I am married to just two wives. However, I believe a lot of people don’t understand the Bible very well. It was Paul who suggested that if it be possible a man should marry just one wife or none at all. So, when you consider the disciples at the time, they were all married to more than one wife. For instance, Moses was communicating with God face to face but he had two wives.
David had eighteen wives but immediately he went for another man’s wife, that was when God was angered questioning why he went for another man’s wife. So also, was Solomon found with numerous wives. Abraham was very blessed by the Lord and God even had the covenant of blessing him and he also had three wives.
So, marrying to more than one wife is not a sin. Someone may have only one wife and may be struggling to cater for her needs and her children. However, some of us who are married to more than one wife are able to cater for their needs. It’s only hypocrisy on the part of men that makes them pretend it’s a sin. A lot of men in this country who are married have girlfriends or concubines in their numbers. But those of us who are courageous are the ones who bring in the ladies as second or third wives. Some of the men even go to the extent of hiding their biological children because they are born out of wedlock but I don’t do that. For me when I father a child with a woman, I make it public for all to see.
I have experienced that ordeal in the past and so I don’t want that child to go through same. There’s nowhere in the word of God that it’s written that a man should marry one wife.
So, it’s not a sin. Moreover, everyone who marries more than one wife experiences God’s blessings because you are catering to the needs of God’s creation. You are taking care of the needs of the woman and her family and all these people are God’s creation. So, marrying two or more wives is not a sin. If people had the understanding, they would have all married more than one wife. What gives the most peace of mind is marrying more than one wife.” He stated.
