Women should be allowed to marry two husbands, says Nollywood Susan Peters
Susan Peters, multiple award-winning Nollywood actress, says women should be allowed to marry two husbands.
The movie star, with over 50 credits in Nollywood films, disclosed this on her social media page, though she did not provide the context within which the post was made.
According to her, the idea of women marrying two husbands should be welcomed, just in case the unexpected happens.
“Women should be allowed to marry two husbands in case thunder fires one,” she wrote on Instagram.

Born on May 30, 1980, the Benue-born actress has featured in several Nollywood movies alongside some decorated figures in the movie industry including Ramsey Nouah and Rita Dominic.
Her blissful career has also seen her snagged a host of awards and recognition. The 39-year-old model got married to a Dutchman in 2015. It is believed that the duo are no longer together.
Peters’ view comes on the heels of several other individual opinions on relationships and marriages.
Stella Seal, award-winning Ghanaian gospel singer better known as Stella Dugan, had last year argued that there was nothing wrong with a man marrying two wives so long as he can cater for them.
Mike Eze-Nwalie Nwogu, a Lagos nightclub owner better known as Pretty Mike, also made the headlines recently for saying “a beautiful lady isn’t meant for only one man.”

A federal high court in Abuja has dismissed a suit filed by Dino Melaye, former senator representing Kogi west, seeking to stop the infectious diseases control bill. Melaye had filed the suit against Femi Gbajabiamila, speaker of the house of representatives, and four others seeking the protection of his fundamental rights over the bill. According to Melaye, the bill threatens “the dignity of person, personal liberty, right to private and family life, right to freedom of movement and right to own immovable property in Nigeria”.

Other respondents in the suit are the clerk of the national assembly, the clerk of the house of representatives, Abubakar Malami, attorney-general of the federation, and Moham...

Usman Mohammed, managing director of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), says consumers should be prepared to pay more for electricity to ensure regular power supply. Mohammed (pictured) was speaking during the groundbreaking for the replacement of old wires on the Ikeja West-Alimosho-Ogba-Alausa-Ota transmission lines in Lagos on Friday. “I want to tell the Nigerian public that we cannot move forward if we do not pay more for electricity,” NAN quoted him to have said. “There is no relationship between poverty and payment for electricity. “For the poor, give them electricity and a means of measurement and manage their cost. “But if we don’t initiate a cost-reflective tariff system and the situation continue like this, public funds would continue to sink in the sector in futility.” The TCN boss also urged the government to stop subsidizing the power sector in order to move the sector forward. “We have to be prepared to remove the government in the middle, ...

Tonto Dikeh, a Nigerian actress, and Olakunle Churchill, her ex-husband, have reignited their war of words after the former claimed the latter is a “bisexual”.

On Monday, the movie star struck the first blow at the father of her son after she asked fans what they’ll do if they discover that their partner is bisexual. “You wake up one day and you discover you are married to a bisexual man. What will you do? I walked out,” she wrote on her Instagram page. “For those of you who say God forbid, well I hope you know that 60% of the men we marry sleep with men or y’all still casting and binding for change.” In a swift reaction, Churchill described Dikeh’s claim as “humongous lies.” He also charged Nigerians not to succumb to those instigating Twitter trends with his name. “Churchill is the new ...

By Brajest

Regina Askia, Nigerian-born family nurse, has poured out her annoyance on those behind the recent death threats received by Denrele Edun, a media personality. It all started on Saturday when the eccentric TV host took to his social media page to share screenshots of death threats sent to him by some Twitter users. In the screenshots, a group of people who christened themselves “Titans” appeared to have threatened to “kill” Edun because “Tacha has decreed it.” The 38-year-old entertainer, born  Adenrele Oluwafemi Edun,  said he decided to share the screenshots so his fans could see it while laughing off the development. “In my usual manner of RETWEETING the good, bad, vile and wickedly ugly tweets thrown at me (Because I consider them hilarious) from a certain fan base (even though I NEVER mentioned their fave), I noticed some “We will kill Denrele” tweets this morning,” his post read in part. “KILL DENRELE?

Hope Uzodinma, governor of Imo state, on Thursday met with President Muhammadu Buhari, seeking his intervention in the refund of over N32 billion his predecessors reportedly spent on federal roads in the state. Speaking with state house correspondents after the meeting with Buhari, Uzodinma said Imo is in “financial distress”. He said the funds, if released, will assist in clearing both salary and pension arrears. He said the consultants he engaged discovered that at least N32 billion was spent on federal roads in the past. Uzodinma said he briefed Buhari on the situation of things he met on the ground in the state, adding that the president listened to him. Uzodinma’s predecessors are Achike Udenwa (1999 to 2007), Ikedi Ohakim (2007 to 2011), Rochas Okorocha (2011 to 2019) and Emeka Ihedioha who governed for seven months before the supreme court replaced him. In 2016, Okorocha had described roads in the state as death traps, adding that his administration ha...

Anthony Joshua's next fight will be against Kubrat Pulev at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, June 20. The 38-year-old Pulev is the mandatory IBF challenger to take on Joshua, who currently holds the WBA, IBF and WBO titles. Joshua won back the belts with a unanimous point victory over Andy Ruiz Jr. in December. "I am happy to have the opportunity to show the world how strong I really am," Pulev told reporters on Monday. It will be Joshua's first fight in the UK, since he defeated Alexander Povetkin at Wembley in September, 2018. This also means boxing fans won't get to see Joshua fight Tyson Fury just yet. Both British boxers now hold all of the division's belts between them. However, Deontay Wilder has triggered a rematch clause with Fury.
