112-year old man marries a 17-year old girl

This is a very odd practice. I'm grateful I'm not in Somalia. Hahaha.

That is too bizarre. I don't see anything wrong in someone marrying another person older than them, but there are limits! (At least to me.) He's old enough to be her great-grandfather o_O

This is Crazy. He is way too old for her. I would have to put restraints on my daughter to keep her in the house if I lived where they do.

yes folks - the man must be a crank ... imagune seeig a child born and waiting for her to come of marriageable age and then proposing to her, if the report is to be believed ... there must he some other reason in the background ...

this is sick and nasty!_!

I have heard of marriages like that. In the early nineteen seventies, a hundred year old man married a girl of fifteen and she gave him a baby. In
Australia once, north Queensland, a boy of seventeen was hiking through and was stopped by an eighty year old woman who wanted a husband. They got
married and two years later the wife died and left him everything she had.
She was a rich heiress who didn't have anybody to leave her estates to so
at 80, she married a 17 year old student, she died at 82, when he turned 19, he became a multi millionaire after her funeral and he married a girl closer to his own age and raised a family with her. They
never had to work because they had the house, farm, all the life stock and produce from his first wife, which included all the money that she had saved up or invested in various banks. 2/11/2009.

mllovric - thanks for the stories ... such incidents do happen in real life ...

Moreso, I think people involved in these relationships are not thinking very well of their futures. Hahaha.

It's in their tradition i think.Good that I am not from this kind of tribe.

thaks for sharing informations...

First I am wonder that how he is still in this world after completing 112 years and no wonders because he will be rich may be thats reason
