At the request of his father who had merely asked him to expand his clan, Ernesto Kapinga took it for real. He married his first wife in 1961, and had his first child a year later. However, Kapinga’s father was not impressed. Now with 16 wives, hopefully life seems more peaceful. Of the 16 wives, seven are sisters. Talk about a family bond! They now live in harmony and claim to have no share of jealousy among themselves. “This is not just a home, it is a system, and it works,” Kapinga, the father, proudly said. The family finds its sustenance in farming and yielding crops on their own. Basically, it is an ecosystem adding on to Tanzania’s economy. Crazy plan.

Imagine having to call your classmate papa. That is exactly the case for Midori’s daughter. Midori was the mother of Isamu Tomoika’s classmate. Little did they know their fates were to be intertwined. This viral Japanese couple said that Isamu, now 32 years old, first saw Midori at a parent-teacher meet at his school. Of course that’s how typical love stories start, don’t they? However, twenty years later, when they met again, Isamu was rejected by Midori because of the significant age gap. However, after many fascinating dates and constant confessions, Midori’s heart faltered. How could she say no now? Isamu showed his commitment to the 53 year old woman by buying a house worth Rs 2.2 crore for them. The two tied the knot in July of last year.
