===Africa=== [[File:Polyandry (bold, color).svg|thumb|Polyandry]] *In the Lake Region of Central Africa, "Polygyny ... was uncommon. Polyandry, on the other hand, was quite common."<ref>Warren R. Dawson (ed.): ''The Frazer Lectures, 1922β1932''. Macmillan & Co, 1932. p. 33.</ref> * Among the Irigwe of Northern Nigeria, women have traditionally acquired numerous spouses called "co-husbands". * In August 2013, two [[Kenya]]n men entered into an agreement to marry a woman with whom they had both been having an affair. Kenyan law does not explicitly forbid polyandry, although it is not a common custom.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-23840824|title=Kenyan trio in 'wife-sharing' deal|publisher=BBC|date=26 August 2013|access-date=20 June 2018|archive-date=11 August 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180811224427/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-23840824|url-status=live}}</ref>
