The advice she received

The panel of ladies who were on the show for the day advised the young lady to follow what she wants to do by ascertaining how exactly the marriage will affect her and if coexisting will be peaceful.

One of the panelists mentioned:

"You also have to know that a Muslim can marry up to four wives. Although you think it's okay to be the second wife, you have to also be okay with the prospects of having two more in addition to you."

The lady was also told not to put what people are going to say in her mind as the marriage is between herself and the man she is in love with, not them.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a lady anonymously chose to share her dilemma with followers of a popular page on Facebook called Manokekame.

She revealed that her boyfriend of two years recently confessed he is a traditionalist after lying that he was a member of the Lights House Church.

The dilemma is that she is a daughter of a Pentecost deaconess and knows a man with that background will not be accepted, but she has fallen so much for him and is confused, she intimated.
