ABSTRACT

In this research، I was able to arrive at the conclusion that natural jealousy and fervour is ever intact in co-wives; and the causes of their issues revolve around four major points:  Mistrust: Most co-wives have low opinion of one another. If the first were to have some level of trust for the incoming second and welcomes her with an open-mind، and the incoming second reciprocates same to the one already in the house، their problems will surely be limited.  Calumny: It is well-known that the tale-bearers who gossip around among co-wives are the causes of most grave issues faced in the setting of co-wives. This can easily be remedied by having a face-to-face sitting to include the trio: the carrier of the information، the accused and the complainer.  Ignorance of the objectives of taking more than one wife: The wrong or myopic opinion likening the objective behind marrying more than one wife to helping hand، as held by some people، creates lacuna between the co-wives.  Injustice between wives: Some husbands incline so much to one of their wives at the expense of the other(s). They obviously provide more for her and give her more time and attention. This normally leads to chaos when the other(s) try tendering their dissatisfaction with the situation.
