Bala Mohammed, a 70-year-old man from Dass, Bauchi State, has recently gone viral on social media after uploading photos of approximately 100 women he dated years ago.
Despite his age, Mohammed shared in a recent interview with a local radio station in Bauchi that he still hopes to marry, specifically expressing a desire for a working-class woman.
He explained, “Even though I am old, but not too old, I still want to get married to a working-class lady so that when I die, she will be able to take care of my children.”
The elderly bachelor revealed that the photos, which feature women he was romantically involved with 20, 14, and 6 years ago, resurfaced online after friends discovered and shared them.
His decision to post the images was originally lighthearted, he said, without consideration for the potential backlash.
As some of the women recently saw their pictures, a few opted to address the matter legally, with court proceedings initiated against him.
In the interview, Mohammed, who has never been married nor fathered any children, attributed his prolonged bachelorhood to his fear of contracting sexually transmitted infections, which deterred him from settling down when he was younger.
Now, however, he is ready to pursue marriage if he can find a compatible partner who can help provide for their children in his absence.
Mohammed also clarified that the women in the photos were all single during their relationships with him, dismissing rumors suggesting otherwise.
Mohammed however, apologized to the women for hurting them.
