Gaindeh thanks to you for the video on Taka , He is such a versatile individual am sure he is trying to make ends meet back home if he is still there. I admire his skill and zeal in the quest to entertain and earn his livelihood. There is dignity in labor. I wish him all the best where ever he may be. Cheers.

Kaaniba,
You are spot on Taka, he is incredibly versatile. I can't figure how the Ministry of Tourism and GTA could miss out on such a resource in their efforts in promoting tourism.

Santanfara,
I don’t think the mussukebba will consent to that.
But if you take a dialog with her she may reconsider and even give advice if the intended is a worthy contestant.

Tacky issue that bros ,I had the experience of two wives. The day i informed the first wife I was wedding another was like a house on fire, not even the whole Fire Brigade could tame its spread literally speaking. On a serious note though it was a very interesting experience and those who venture most be ready for the offside traps, innuendos springing up all the time. the worst is when confronted by a brawl between them ,any one you touch or talk to gets mad accusing you of siding the other.The Utopian view though is that one could live a happy polygamous live in peace. For me it was hell and once out i shall never venture there again. there you go brothers let us stick to one . I have seen some semblance of collaboration in polygamous families but on a scale of probabilities I vouch for more trouble than harmony.It is an Islamic practice but has an attached duty which men of today could hardly uphold. Let no one here say I did not warn you haa hayindang!

Kaanibaa, very honest of you to tell us this. What better lesson than from one who has the experience? Of course i am now wondering which of the two wives you left behind, or were you dumped by the one who raised hell? In a way i hope so, because i sympathise with her. There you are, thinking you are in a loving and secure relationship with a nice, poetic guy and then he comes and gives you the bad news..........

Oh dear ,me and my big mouth again. I shall send flowers , the most beautiful ,just for you and they will come in a vessel made specially for you.Till you get them please do not give me up.I was dumped by the twain if you want to know and i take this as a fault on my part they being justifiably made to suffer my marriage as it were.I do have my regrets now and hope I will not repeat my dumb mistakes again.Bad news yes! But I hope it was honorable to own up , costly as i can see.Anna please do not despair and once more thanks for flattering me thus.

Do you mean to say your wives teamed up?? Oh, that's lovely - i love it when there's solidarity among women (unfortunately, you don't see that often). Ha, Kaanibaa- forget about flowers and whatnot, just give us a poem now and then. Am not despairing nor flattering, i was just trying to picture the whole mess you got yourself into in my mind.
Loved the video, by the way. My, African women can dance.......we, white girls, can try but we will always be 'amateurs'.
