--------
In this clip, Akon continued explaining the cultural differences in how spouses are chosen and families are formed in parts of Africa. He recounted how his dad chose his mom when she was just 13-years-old and would "protect" her over the years until they were officially married when she turned 17. Akon explained how this type of process usually occurs when two families are looking to consolidate and expand and they arrange marriages to ensure the prosperity of both clans.
