Very interesting conversations. Our Luo culture was rich indeed. Wife inheritance was vital back then and enabled women to live good lives after the death of their husbands. It’s sad that this wife inheritance thing has badly been abused.

The practice was deemed dangerous when HIV and AIDS was at its peak because if the dead man died of the disease, then it was dangerous to inherit the widow
