  1. This man is just a thief. Bride price in Kasese is really cheap. Just five goats! And I believe you are allowed to bring them in installments. In other regions they are demanding for 8 cows (exotic).

  2. This is interesting. why did the police spoil the party? they should have arrested them after the ceremony was done
