Nigerian Man Has 107 Wives: Outrageous or Impressive?

Nigerian Muslims are outraged at faith healer Bello Masaba, who Newser reports has been marrying a new woman every few weeks for decades, resulting in a total of 107 wives and more than 5,000 family members.

He claims it doesn't go against Muslim law, but Islamic authorities are openly upset.

“I get a revelation from God telling me any woman I’m going to marry,” he says. Otherwise “I wouldn’t have gone beyond two.” He refuses to use medicine, and won’t let his wives or children use it, either. Coincidentally, around 50 of his 185 children are dead. “I didn’t feel annoyed or upset” when they died, he said, “because it’s God who gave them to me, and it’s God who takes them away.”

Critics have also accused Masaba of treating his family like slaves, but his family members have strongly defended him and explained that it's not true.

The video below is from 2008, when Masaba only had 86 wives.

    shari'a/islam is always about the basic nature of man between his legs... never about his spirit and mind ... shari'a/islam always degrades females and places them below dogs and donkeys ... just fields wating to be raped and seeded ... just dirt.

    This illitaret who said God told him to marry so many wives, is it not the same God that made only one wife for Adam? False religion and false believe. Any body who marries more than one wife including your so-called prophet mohammed, is the biggest PROSTITUTE, take it or leave it.

    Bello Masaba sounds like a nut case. And he would not allow medical attention to 50 of his kids so they died and thats OK because it was God's will? NO! Those 50 kids dying is not God's will. God gives us a head to think with and doctors with the gift of healing so we may lead a long and healthy life.

    I cannot judge how outrageous it might be, but he has a long way to go to catch up with Solomon of old (300 wives and 700 concubines).
    Assuming it was a voluntary matchup and that he is able to provide for the needs of so many wives, I cannot complain (unless he were doing it in the USA where it is illegal).

    Apparently, they believe in God, but don't believe that God can talk to men.

    with this many wives and kids how does he now when they are ill. He is out for his own satisfaction and selfishness. Maybe when he becomes ill he will not receive any medicine.

    What is even worse is why do these women marry this person?

    and put away for life. Muslim men under sharia law treat their women and children like dirt. His wives and kids should be set free and be able to make a life of their own and be a family. On top of that letting them die b/c he doesn't believe in medicine. This has NOTHING to do with god, he follows his BONER'S orders and commandments.

    Actually, "Stupid" would have been a better choice of words...

    Most people can't understand (or even truly enjoy) hanging out with the opposite sex for any prolonged period of time. This why there's such a thing as "Girl's Night Out" and similar fronts for men. My woman is the bomb, and I lover her with all my heart... but if I had to live with 106 of her friends - when they start cycling together?! - hell no.

    One woman is enough for me.

    He is most likely marrying very young girls from very poor families. Nothing impressive about that. He currently has 86 wives from the 107, nine dead, and 12 divorced.
