A beneficiary of the Kano State Government-sponsored mass wedding programme, Dantani Aruba, has expressed happiness after marrying another woman through the initiative.
Aruba, who spoke during the mass wedding ceremony on Saturday, said the government-backed programme had provided an opportunity for him to expand his family while reducing some of the financial pressures commonly associated with wedding ceremonies.
In a video recorded by NewsCentralTV and circulated online, Aruba disclosed that he had married another woman through the programme, bringing the number of his wives to three.
“I just married another wife, and I am happy that I have married another one. My wives are now three,” Aruba said.
His disclosure has attracted attention online, with social media users reacting to his account of participating in the state-supported marriage initiative.
The Kano mass wedding programme is designed to support prospective couples who meet the requirements for participation, with government assistance aimed at reducing the financial burden associated with marriage ceremonies.
Aruba’s account has further drawn public attention to the scale and social impact of the initiative, particularly among beneficiaries who say the programme has provided an avenue for them to formalise their marriages.
The development has also generated broader conversations online about Kano’s mass wedding initiative and its role in supporting marriage among participating residents.
