Nigerian woman seeks additional wife for husband, excludes feminists from applications
Rezi Omoghene Uzih's controversial Facebook post invites women for polygamous role.

In a surprising social media announcement, Rezi Omoghene Uzih, a Nigerian woman, is actively searching for a wife, concubine, or side chick for her husband. This unusual request was made public in a Facebook post dated October 27, 2026, where she outlined specific criteria for interested candidates.
Uzih's post emphasizes that potential applicants must be beautiful, young, intelligent, and respectful, hailing from affluent backgrounds. In a striking declaration, she categorically stated that feminists should not apply, labeling feminism as a "red flag". This exclusionary stance has sparked discussions about the evolving perceptions of gender roles and relationships in contemporary Nigerian society.
The post further elaborates on the characteristics she seeks in a prospective addition to their family. Uzih specified preferences for physical appearance, indicating that candidates should be either light-skinned or dark-skinned and semi-chubby, while explicitly stating a preference against slim women. She expressed a desire for someone who embraces the concept of polygamy, indicating that her family is expanding and requires additional support in maintaining their household.
Uzih's announcement also included details about the benefits that would accompany the role. She promised an official car, living accommodations, access to the family’s royal lounge, a monthly allowance, and a personal savings account. Additionally, she mentioned a financial incentive of $10,000 for artwork and two wine pieces valued at $24,000, contingent upon the candidate's contributions and care for her husband, whom she referred to as "Lord Uzih".
The post concluded with a call for interested women to reach out via WhatsApp, stating, "I will be waiting to chat with you. Red flag: Feminist." This unconventional approach to family dynamics and the explicit rejection of feminist ideals have raised eyebrows and prompted various reactions online.
As discussions about polygamy and gender roles continue to evolve in Nigeria, Uzih's post serves as a provocative reminder of the diverse perspectives that exist within the country's cultural landscape. The implications of her request may resonate beyond her immediate circle, reflecting broader societal attitudes towards marriage, feminism, and women's roles in Nigerian families.
