“I don’t believe in having one wife. It is not our culture or tradition. These are imported ideas,” he said.

Kanayo also mentioned that he was unaware of divorce until he moved to Lagos from the South East, noting that in Igbo culture, men would rather stay in a marriage than divorce.
“I never knew about divorce until we came to Lagos. An Igbo man prefers to stay in the marriage rather than divorcing,” he stated.
Despite his views, Kanayo is publicly known to be married to one wife, Nneka Onyekwere.
