Delta Singer Reveals How He Plans to Satisfy His Three New Wives
Renowned Isoko highlife musician, Arube Otor, popularly known as “Isoko Fela,” is set to take an unconventional step in his personal life.
The Uzere-born entertainer from Isoko South Local Government Area of Delta State has announced plans to marry three women on the same day in January 2025.
In a candid interview, Otor shed light on his decision, which he says was inspired by his late father. Growing up in a polygamous household, he experienced firsthand the unity and love that can exist in such a setting. “When my father was alive, he married three wives, and there was no division in our family. We lived as one, and you couldn’t tell which child belonged to which mother,” he explained.
But why marry all three women on the same day? According to Otor, the decision stems from the harmony and mutual respect his wives-to-be already share. “They love each other deeply and are very supportive of one another. It just felt natural to celebrate the union together,” he said.
Otor, who is already married to his first wife, revealed that she was aware of his plans and gave her blessing. “I told her, ‘If you truly love me, you will accept my decision.’ She not only agreed but has been supportive throughout the process,” he shared.
He also disclosed that he met his brides-to-be at different times, with two of them already having children for him. The wedding, scheduled for January 19, 2025, at London Base in Uzere Kingdom, will be a grand celebration of culture and unity.

The musician outlined how he plans to manage the dynamics of his home. “We’ll all live together in the same compound, just like my father did. For bed duties, each wife will spend three days with me in rotation. During those days, the wife with me will also prepare my meals. This arrangement ensures fairness and balance,” Otor explained.
He also emphasized the importance of respect and understanding in maintaining peace among his wives. “If I notice any sign of jealousy or conflict, I’ll address it immediately. It’s my responsibility to ensure harmony in my home,” he said.
When asked if he is financially equipped to cater to four wives and their children, Otor was confident. “With God’s help, I will provide for them. I don’t live beyond my means, and I share what I have fairly,” he said. The musician currently has nine children and revealed plans to marry two more wives in the future to bring the total number to six.
Sharing advice for those considering marriage, Otor urged individuals to follow their hearts but be realistic about their capabilities. “Don’t do it because someone else is doing it. If you know you can’t handle it, don’t start. For women, if your husband wants to marry another wife, focus on building a good character. That’s what keeps a man,” he said.
As preparations for the January wedding are in full swing, Otor remains unbothered by critics who view his decision as controversial. “God rules my life, not people. If someone doesn’t like it, they’re free to stay away,” he declared.
With his bold step, the musician aims to celebrate love, tradition, and unity, setting an example of how polygamy can work when handled with respect and understanding.
