Exclusive: Mr Seed clarifies controversial statement on polygamy after wife’s outburst – Nairobi News

Gospel singer Mr Seed found himself at the centre of a trending discussion following a recent statement he made during a YouTube debate with Based Podcast.

His remarks about men having a natural inclination to marry multiple women stirred controversy and didnt sit well with his partner, Nimo Gachuiri.

In an exclusive interview with Nairobi News, Mr Seed expressed feeling harshly judged by those who commented on a snippet of the video.

He noted that the controversial statement was taken out of context, as the entire debate lasted an hour, but only 30 seconds were highlighted.

When questioned about his stance on polygamy, Mr Seed clarified, I have one wife, and I can never be polygamous. Why should I get a second wife when I have someone that I love? That is a statement that I have heard since my childhood that men are polygamous. I quoted that, but the way I said it came out in a wrong way.

He added, I have even sung for her that she is the only one. We are good; its just a small misunderstanding, and we have talked about it.

Mr Seed acknowledged the online pressure, explaining that it contributed to his wife, Nimos, reaction.

He urged people to listen to the entire podcast before passing judgment and emphasised the podcasts purpose of fostering debate and disagreement.

Regarding Nimos public response, he stated, Everyone has a right to feel what she felt, and at that time, she was angry, especially because of the online pressure. About her unfollowing me, I do not know since I have not been online. She woke up well and prepared our breakfast.

Nimo, on the other hand, expressed her discontent with Mr Seeds statement in an angry rant and even unfollowed him on Instagram.

She criticised him for making such remarks, considering their stable relationship, and found his comments insensitive.

I saw a small part of the podcast done by Mr Seed, saying whatever he was saying. I didnt even finish watching it. I got angry. So I turned to him and asked, what are you really saying? she wrote in her Instagram stories.

What I want to say is that if its about love, it was an insensitive thing to say when you are in a committed relationship, she added.
