He was arrested for breaking sharia's mandate that a man marry no more than four wives. More on this story. "87 lawyers stand for man with 86 wives," by AbdulRaheem Aodu for Daily Trust, September 21:
Up to 87 lawyers have been moblised by human rights coalition groups in the North for the defence of Alhaji Bello Masaba, the man with 86 wives.Masaba is currently remanded in prison custody by a Minna Upper Sharia Court for unlawful marriages and inciting contempt of a religious creed.
[...]
The lawyers argued that the case would not stand because Masaba could not be prosecuted under the Penal Code in a Sharia Court.
They also stressed that the hands of Masaba’s accusers were not also clean when it came to the same charges they had pressed against the octogenarian...
What's it - one lawyer per wife plus one lawyer for him?
This whole deal is so stupid, dumb, and idiotic, no wonder no one's commenting!

LOL, what darcy said,,
it's alien to everything that is civilized,, all those children, living in poverty.
Do all these women, make this pervo, "pull trains",, bleckkkk!!
Sharia and islam, is not compatible with the west.
These primitive men,, multiple wives,, all pregnant all the time,, no wonder these sharia countries are total crap holes.
You can be sure,, that this "family" won't be paying for those lawyers. They will be a drain on the already dirt poor economy.
The religion of peace isn't even compatible with this planet. They would just burn up all the resources and animal world,, with their sick sick sexual and reproductive beliefs.

Do you think they could get 87 Muslim lawyers who would be interested in trying the man in Jordan who stabbed his daughter and crushed her head with a rock?
By the time the court hears 87 long winded lawyers and several hundred witnesses, most of them related, 86 year old Masaba will be 100, his wives will be old women, and the children will be grown and have families of their own...
Charlie, I would say not. These zombie ambulance chasers know where their bread is buttered.
A father killing his daughter? A certain "No win".
An old man wanting more knookie? A certain "Win".
The outcomes to these problems are fully outlined in black and white in the zombie cult War Manual.
I agree, Boneshack. I probably should've used the sarcasm tag.
It seemed like a good opportunity to run a contest along the lines "How many Muslim lawyers does it take to...".
A precautionary google on the phrase blew me away. A commentator three years ago at faithfreedom.org reminded readers that a certain defendant in Iraq had the services of more than 2,500 of the pests:

...During the past year, the committee for the defence of Mr Hussein, known by its acronym Isnad, has swelled to more than 2,500 lawyers. Some are Iraqis, led by Mr Hussein's head lawyer, Khalil al-Duleimi. But the majority come from Arab states, with Jordan providing as many as 600 of the legal experts...
Ok MBR, I'll go first: How many Muslim lawyers does it take to defend a Muslim woman accused of, well, anything?
None - Muslim women don't get the luxury of a trial.
Sadam had 2,500 lawyers? Well, I guess 2,500 heads are better than 1. Or maybe not.
How many Muslim lawyers does it take to represent an infidel plaintiff in a Sharia court?
Get the hell out of here, kafir!
haha these muslims are just pissed because this old black muslim has more wives than their oversexed, perfect man muhammed. This is off course seen as an affont towards muhammed and islam. though I believe the koran really doesn't mandate and punishment for having more than 4 wives.
Desidude -
The Qur'an certainly didn't stop the Sultans of Turkey from having more than four wives.
Even in Najisland lawyers are a dime a dozen.
