The father of David Banda, Madonna's adopted Malawian baby, remarried over the weekend. Banda's new wife, Flora Kamanga, is already pregnant and expecting Banda's child. London's Daily Mail describes the details of the wedding:
Peasant farmer Yohane Banda, 32, wed his second wife on a dusty school playing field, with a wedding feast of tripe and boiled cabbage, the Daily Mail of London reported. The 22-year-old bride wore a polyester wedding dress rented for about $3, and her groom donned a polyester double-breasted blue suit borrowed from his brother-in-law, with his own yellow shirt, red tie and black tennis shoes. More than 600 people gathered for the ceremony Thursday in Lipunga village, 100 miles from Malawi's capital Lilongwe.
Christ, was it really necessary for the Daily Mail to describe every damn detail of Yohane and Flora's wedding? They're poor. We get it. Why not end the story with a short paragraph about how they won't be going on a honeymoon because they can barely afford to eat. Or better yet, describe how the new couple collected the rice thrown at them so they could have a head start for the upcoming planting season.
At first I thought that was Seal!!!OOPS!!
funny, i care more about this wedding than the sham TomKat marriage
What, they can afford to buy pretty white dresses and ties... but no food? Talk about a mishap in prioritys.
Very silly comment by the guardian.
Being poor and somebody adopting your child doesn't mean that a person is restricted to marry, aah!aah! i thought you claim to be civilized so why this uncivilized comment. Yohane Banda did not ask Madonna to adopt his child rather it was vice
