00:00Polygamy is not a joking matter, as it has serious consequences for women, children,

00:06and family life, says women's rights group Sisters in Islam.

00:10In a statement, SIS congratulated Qadamintri Basar Sanusi Noor on his second marriage but

00:15criticized him for joking about having two more quotas to fill.

00:19SIS found it disconcerting that he trivialized the issue, reducing women to trophies and

00:25undermining the emotional depth of polygamous relationships.

00:29It added that polygamy can cause emotional and financial strain on families, saying leaders

00:33should handle the matter with empathy and respect.

00:36SIS also said fairness and happiness in polygamous relationships go beyond financial capability,

00:42requiring emotional support and ensuring the well-being of all parties.

00:47Last week, Sanusi confirmed that his second marriage to a police officer was conducted

00:51properly according to customs and regulations addressing rumors of being caught for khalwat.
