Maasaba lives with his family in an 89-room house in the city of Bida. His extended family - in-laws, cousins, nieces, nephews - now numbers about 5,000.
Maasaba和家人們住在Bida城一棟有89個房間的房子裏。他的大家庭——法律上的親戚,包括堂兄弟、侄女、侄子等現在大約有5000人之多。

His polygamist ways landed Maasaba in jail just three years ago, when he refused an order from Islamic authorities to divorce all but four of his wives.
3年前伊斯蘭當局曾要求他和與衆多妻子離婚,只能留下四位合法妻子,但是他沒有遵從,也因此被關入獄。

When the case went to trial, dozens of his spouses testified they were married of their own free will. After hearing from 57 women, the court ordered Maasaba's release.
到了審判時,他的妻子們表示她們都是自願與Maasaba結婚的。法庭在聽了他57位妻子的證言之後決定將他釋放。

"If I didn't satisfy them," he said, "they would leave."
“如果我沒法讓妻子們滿意,她們會離開的。”他說。
