An unusual marriage happened in Kano on Sunday when a 75-year-old-man, Muhammad Liti, got wedded to an 82-year-old woman, Fatima Malam.
‘Dala FM’ reports that the wedding took place on Sunday night at Kthe an Fako area of Dorayi town in Gwale local government area of the state.
So happy was the woman that she said, “My happiness today is equal to that of a pilgrim travelling to Mecca. I am in a happy mood because I have found the love of my love. I promise to be obedient to him. We shall live as husband and wife and do whatever married couples do, not only to be bringing him water or taking water to the toilet for him. I will be cooking him delicious food.”
Liti was said to have paid a bride price of N10,000 to his heartthrob who fries Kosai and Wainar Rogo in the area. The couple reportedly threw a colourful ceremony as families and friends as well as hundreds of residents trooped to the venue to witness the occasion.
The bridegroom, who expressed happiness on finding a life partner, said the marriage was based on true love.
