A South African man married four women at the same time on Saturday 26th Sept 2009. Milton Mbhele, 44, a municipal manager in Indaka, showed up for his wedding in Weenen, near Ladysmith, in a white limousine, with four brides. The women in white gowns each received rings and a kiss from the groom at a ceremony attended by hundreds of people. The brides, aged between 22 and 35, took their vows together, answering "we do" when asked if they take Mr Mbele as their husband. Mbhele, who has seven children with his four brides and three from previous relationships, cited his Zulu "culture" and economic reasons for the unusual wedding. South African law recognises traditional polygamous marriages, even President Jacob Zuma has three wives. Yet while polygamy remains common among several tribes including the Zulus and Swazis, simultaneous weddings are rare.

As long as there is money in ones pocket , what can you do , Its common practice among the Ngunis in Africa , I know that the only sin the man commited was to marry four women in white wedding ,had it been he married them one by one i know people woulnt be making such a fuss about it .
Not only in Southern Africa does this happen , it happens all over the world , I am sure U all agree ,just that the life we live cannot be measured with the one our forefathers lived, but thats life , and it prevents a man from having more galfriends and chaet in hiding
