Kumbe ilikuwa kwa ajili ya kuridhisha mizimu tuAN eight-year-old boy has married a woman 53 years his senior, The Sun reports. <!-- google_ad_section_end(name=story_introduction) -->
<!-- // .story-intro --><!-- google_ad_section_start(name=story_body, weight=high) -->Sanele Masilela - who barely reaches his wife's shoulders - tied the knot with Helen Shabangu, aged 61, at a ceremony in Tshwane, South Africa, in front of 100 guests.
There were rings, dresses, suits, a bouquet, marquee, and it was even sealed with a particularly awkward kiss, but the couple did not sign a marriage certificate and they don't live together.
There is also the fact Ms Shabunga already has a husband and five children, but that was not a problem for the schoolboy.
"I'm happy that I married Helen," he said. Sanele claimed his dead ancestors ordered him to arrange the ceremony. "When I'm older I will marry a lady my own age."
The boy's mum, who is 15 years younger than her prospective daughter-in-law, said: "Sanele's grandfather asked him to get married before he died. He chose Helen because he loves her."
