MBALE –A former legislator – MP in Uganda has lived the dream of thousands of many men – the desire to control as several women as their wives. But the former Lutseshe County, Bududa district representative – Godfrey Watenga Nabutanyi took the game a little higher.
He wedded two women in Beatrice Nanzala and Christine Nekesa at a joint traditional function held on Saturday at his home in Kuushu Town Council in Bududa district.
The function attracted a mammoth crowd with many of the notable invited guests donning traditional Ugandan regalia such as the court and kanzu while women turned up in busuutis.
Polygamy is believed to have roots in Africa although religiously amongst the Christians unrecognised. It’s only the Muslims faithful who are allowed to marry up to four women – depending on their abilities.
“Isaiah 4:1 says in that day, seven women will hold one man, ask him to marry them, that they will buy their clothes, and eat their own food but…….,” Flavia Batureine, seemed to support the former legislator with a bible quotation.
