But Mr Bello sees his matrimonial
crusade as 'divine', and instead of heeding the ruling, opted instead to add to
his nuptial tally.
I am still going to marry
more. I will keep marrying them for as long I am alive. If it was up to me, I
would have married maybe two wives, but what I am doing is divine Mohammed Bello Abubakar
He has now tied the knot 107 times -
although 10 of his marriages ended in divorce. Rumours of his death circulated in
his homeland last week,
but he has been quick to scupper claims of his demise,
and said there could be plenty more future Mrs Bellos out there.
Mr Bello told Nigerian newspaper
Vanguard: 'What I am doing is divine. It is an assignment and I will keep doing
it till the end.'
Nevertheless, he said, had Allah not
instructed him to marry so many women, he would probably have settled for a
more modest two wives.
