Hian. Iyam seeing things (in Wizkid’s voice).
A young lady who got married over the weekend to a man old enough to be her father has been the latest topic in town.

That’s not a new thing abi? Shey we’ve heard stories of young ladies having ‘ancestorial husbands’. From Ojukwu’s Bianca to Sade Okoya and the latest in the industry, Regina Daniels.

But, this particular story is unique in a way. Her own carry weight biko. News reaching me is that the said bride entered the marriage with her stomach filled with someone else’s seed and before you ask if the groom knows, yes he does.

The brain and ‘work tool’ behind the pregnancy was said to have found his square root after hearing about the pregnancy, so the lady was quickly married off to the old man to save her (and her unborn child) from any embarrassment.

While some people have come out to criticize this marriage, others have commended it. Someone even said the bride was lucky she wasn’t married off to an imbecile.

Although this is said to be the norm in some parts of the country, I’m hearing about it for the first time.

Do you think this tradition should be encouraged and why?
