“Stay away from polygamy. There is no advantage, just chaos and drama” – Botswana pastor with two wives laments

A Botswana Pastor who is legally married to two wives, Seraki Kemmonye Seraki, has complained bitterly about the struggles of having multiple wives.

Seraki, in a post shared on his Facebook page, while recounting an outing with his family, said there’s no advantage in polygamy because it’s just “chaos and drama”.

He further advised men against marrying multiple wives, and explicitly told them to stay away from polygamy otherwise they will drink their own tears.

“THERE IS NO ADVANTAGE IN POLY-FAM! I have been accused of all sorts of things, from eating two plates to swimming in extra fats like a kidney, though I cannot confirm nor deny the accusations, my dear brother don’t get tempted, there is no advantage in this thing!,” he said.

Today I saw things! “T Sekati, S Sekati, P Sekati…..uhu, naare golo mo ke family ya motho a le 1”? Exclaimed the security guard! I pulled my wives together with the kids as we slid into the Immigration hall! There was some murmuring! “O irang ka bana ba ba kanakana”! “Thaaka basadi ba mothaka yo ba bantle jang, wa yaka o ba loile”!

Then the process of filling forms, quing here and there, the young boys running and sliding between their mothers legs! The girls complaining bitterly about the state of their hairs! Chaotic scenes, the life of a polygamist!

As if that was not enough, with two wives and 6 kids following me around the entire day, none of them could pick that the front of my t was backward and vice versa! “Ele gore o thotse o isitse mapele ko morago” Never felt so small,embarrassed and insulted in one sentence like this! Stay away from this thing…there is no advantage here, just chaos and drama!

I can’t even buy an SVR, or a Lambo, I have to consider cars like Super 16, Caravella, Elegrand(kana ga tweng)! How can a young child like me drive di combi bashimane ba taboga ka di GD6? What kind of life is this? Where is the joy in this you people? Zero advantage! Legale lekeletsang, he added.
