A court in Uganda has forced a man to marry a woman, who claims she has feelings for him. Ms Catherine Kalembe is the one who dragged Mr. Emma Mutaka to court seeking court orders to marry him.

The Chief magistrate of Iganga court, ms Susan Kanyange on hearing this case gave Mutaka up to November 19^th, 2012 to marry this woman or to pay fine for failure to marry her.

The woman also told the magistrate that she doesn’t want to hear stories that the man doesn’t have money to marry her.

Many lawyers and opinion leaders in Uganda, Africa and of course across the globe have described this case as “strange” and the first of its kind in Africa.  Gerald Lumbuye Nsubuga, the LC3 chairperson of Makindye Sabagabo wonders how can a woman develop feelings for a man and she drags him to court seeking forceful marriage and the court accepts her demands.

We have also learnt that the man has a small income while the woman is having a juicy job in one of the organisations in Uganda.

In her submission to the Iganga Chief Magistrate, Ms Kalembe told court that she has been requesting this man to marry her since December 17, 2011.

Ms Nakalembe says that she sees many men but her feelings are on Mr. Mutaka. Kalembe’s lawyer says that since December 2011 his client has suffered mental anguish and torture, lost chances to marry and suffered injured feelings and shame in community because of Mutaka’s refusal to marry her. Mr Mutaka in his defence told the court that he is surprised by this strange suit.

He showed his fighting skills yesterday when he engaged his ex Amina in a fist fight when the babe visited his home on Entebbe road mysteriously and demanded for money to look after a child, Juuko reportedly fathered.

On entering the room, the ex reportedly found Juuko half naked on the bed with another woman. It is said even if Amina had cut off love with the veteran boxer, she still had some feelings left for him.  This is because when he saw the woman in Juuko’s pad, her wires went off and she slapped the woman.

Juuko simply lifted the intruder and threw her outside the house. The soft spoken Juuko told the ex never to come back to his home and try to cause commotion.

Juuko also told the people who had started gathering to bark off.
