Takid Master, a Kenyan man, has opened up about his life as a polygamist, sharing the unique path he has taken in love and relationships.
His story offers insight into how he manages a family with two wives and his openness to bringing in a third. Takid's candid revelations touch on love, loyalty, and the challenges that come with being in a polygamous relationship.
Takid met his first wife, Cecilia, during a time when he was struggling financially. The two crossed paths in an unusual way—he was hanging laundry and asked her for clothes pegs.
That small request led to a conversation that would eventually change both of their lives. Cecilia was interested in learning taekwondo, something Takid was passionate about.
He jokes that his appearance might have played a role in her initial interest in him, but their connection grew deeper over time.
Cecilia’s love for taekwondo soon extended to a love for Takid. However, their relationship was not without its difficulties. Cecilia became pregnant, which led her to leave her parents' home.
Even though times were tough, she stayed supportive of Takid’s ambitions. She believed in him and trusted that he would do his best for their future.
As time passed, Takid met Mariam Nyambura, a fellow taekwondo enthusiast. Their shared passion brought them closer, and eventually, Takid developed feelings for her.
When he realized that he wanted to marry Mariam, he knew he had to introduce her to Cecilia. This step wasn’t easy, as Cecilia could already sense that something was changing in their relationship.
According to Cecilia, she noticed Takid spending more time training, staying out late, and being absent more often. Her intuition told her that her husband’s heart was being pulled toward another woman.
Rather than waiting for Takid to reveal the truth, Cecilia confronted him and demanded to meet the woman she suspected was capturing her husband’s attention.
Although it wasn’t a simple process, Cecilia eventually accepted Mariam into the family. The two wives have since learned to navigate the challenges of sharing a husband, with each woman finding her place within the household.
Takid Master believes that love and family go beyond societal expectations. He does not view his polygamous lifestyle as something negative; instead, he sees it as a way to support and provide for the people he loves.
He reassures his wives that he is not a "deadbeat" and is fully committed to their well-being. In his view, polygamy is a lifestyle choice that, when approached responsibly, can bring value to both his family and the community.
