Man With 102 Children Orders His 12 Wives To Go On The Pill

Due to the difficulties of managing his enormous family, a guy who has 102 children has pledged to stop fathering. 67-year-old Musa Hasahya is currently ordering his 12 wives to go on the pill, Daily Star reported.

Musa explains that the lack of adequate resources is the main reason behind the decision.

He says, "I cannot tolerate bearing children anymore because of the limited resources. And on that note, I have advised all my wives of childbearing age to go for family planning."

Musa also gave a warning to individuals who have the idea of having more than four wives. He explained that things are not that great for him.

He said, "I also discourage those who wish to marry more than four wives not to do so because things are not good."

With 568 grandchildren, Musa claims to be able to distinguish between his children and grandchildren and admits to not knowing each one by name.

The family currently resides in a compound with a 12-bedroom house situated in Bugisa, Uganda.

After dropping out of school, Musa married his first wife Hanifa in 1971 when he was just 16 years old, and two years later, she gave birth to a daughter, making him a father for the first time.

Musa claims that as the village chairman and a businessman, he chose to grow his family because he had the resources (land and money).

He said, "Because I was able to earn something, I decided to expand my family by marrying more women."

"I ensured that hoes are provided for each of them to till the land and produce food enough to support the family since the soils are fertile," Musa added.

Musa explains that he is having trouble educating all his children and is now asking for assistance from the government.

But despite his enormous brood, his family says they generally all get on well.

Hanifa said, “He has a listening heart, he never rushes to make decisions before hearing from all the parties. He doesn’t victimize anybody and he treats all of us equally."
