Renowned Isoko highlife artist, Dr. Arube Otor, widely known as Isoko Fela, has generated a public curiosity with his audacious ambition of fathering 32 children as he takes three brides in one day.
On Sunday, January 18, 2025, in Uzere, Delta State, the 53-year-old artist—who is already a father to nine children—took a daring step toward his dream by getting married to three women in a lavish ceremony.
Otor greeted his three new brides, extending his total to four, at a joyous ceremony held at the Anglican Church Field London Base in Uzere Kingdom.
Otor, who was raised in a polygamous home, attributes his ease with this way of life to his upbringing.
In our household, polygamy was never an issue. We have a strong bond and are still together now,” he said.
Otor threw a single reception for his new bride in order to save money, explaining,
“I want to have 32 children, and until I realize that dream, I won’t leave this earth,” Otor declared confidently.
“I’ve already paid their bride prices, and we’ve been living together. The event is just a reception. Members of the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria will provide music, and refreshments are finalized. It will be a big day.”
He also disclosed his intentions to take on two more women in the near future in order to further grow his family. Otor highlighted his family’s harmonious chemistry.
“If there’s a dispute, I mediate in the presence of the others so everyone learns from the resolution. My wives are independent; one is a hairdresser, another a caterer, and one a trader,” he noted.
Otor attributes his vigor to a natural diet and maintains his confidence in his capacity to carry out his marriage duties despite his advanced age.
“I don’t eat rice because it weakens a man. My diet keeps me fit and ready. I visit my wives weekly, and none of them feels neglected,” he explained, adding that he avoids aphrodisiacs entirely.
