I Didn’t Become A Polygamist Intentionally – Jide Kosoko

Veteran Nollywood actor, Jide Kosoko, has said that it was not his intention to become a polygamist.

According to him, it was God’s design which he had no power over.

He said this in an interview with Vanguard.

According to Jide Kosoko, “I never envisaged being a polygamist though I am a product of one. My parents didn’t support it either. My first wife was a business woman. I craved for somebody who was in the same field with me.

“In those days, the best advice you can get is from your better half and that was how the second woman came to be. Along the line, I lost the two to child births within 11 months interval. I had seven children at that time, so I didn’t plan remarrying or having more children again.

“But after much persuasion from my doctor and relatives, I decided to have a woman with the agreement of not having more children but a complete African woman will not agree to that. One thing led to the other and I got two women again. So being a polygamist is not intentional but God’s design which I do not have a right over.”
