Ladies,would You Marry This Man?

Uganda’s ‘ugliest’man becomes a dad for the 8th time. A man who was officially named ‘Uganda’s Ugliest Man’ Godfrey Baguma, 47, has welcomed his 8th child with his second wife, Kate Namanda,, who he married in 2013. This will be Godfrey and Kate’s 6th child together, he has two children with his ex-wife who he divorced after he caught her cheating. Kate,30, gave birth to a baby girl earlier this week for Godfrey, who has a rare, unknown medical condition. Her first child for him was in 2008. Speaking on how they met, began dating and had children, Godfrey told Uganda’s KFM: ‘I stayed with her four years before her people knew where she was. I didn’t want them to see me until we had a child because they’d definitely advise her to leave me. She left me when she was six months pregnant but I think she later accepted her fate because she came back two months later. I told her that I didn’t choose to look the way I do and that if she feels I am a burden, she is free to leave me’. Love is indeed blind. What are your thoughts?

Bizarre Wedding

Couples Get Married Inside Coffin On Valentine's day. Many couples think of their wedding day as the start of a new life together but 10 newlyweds in Thailand today chose to take the idea more seriously than most when they lay in a coffin as they said their vows.
According to Bangkok post, the wedding ritual, conducted by monks, allows couples to rid themselves of bad luck by being ‘brought back to life’ and is believed to bring true love, prosperity, and protection from harm.
Participants made offerings to the monks before taking their places side-by-side in the large pink coffin – floral bouquets held to their chests. The monks then draped a large white sheet across them –representing their death – and performed chants usually reserved for funerals. The prayers ended with blessings for a new life. When the sheet is removed from the coffin, it signals the start of a life free from bad luck. It also could serve as a reminder for couples to live with the reality that nothing lasts forever – a key component of the Buddhist philosophy. The temple held the event for the first time last year when Valentine’s Day fell on Makha Bucha Day – a Buddhist holiday – and had to do it again this year after a number of brides and grooms contacted the temple asking for their marriages to be blessed.
