Mohammed Bello Abubaka of Nigeria has more than usual number of wives.
The former teacher and Muslim preacher, who lives in Niger State with his wives and at least 170 children, says he is able to cope only with the help of God.One of his brides explains that, "When you marry a man with 86 wives you know he knows how to look after them."
"A man with 10 wives would collapse and die, but my own power is given by Allah. That is why I have been able to control 86 of them," he told the BBC. [Link]

let's hope one of those 170 kids become a genealogist...
