[b] Hundreds of people have attended a wedding in central Somalia between a man who says he is 112-year-old, and his teenage wife. Ahmed Muhamed Dore - who already has 18 children by five wives - said he would like to have more with his new wife, Safia Abdulleh, who is 17-year-old. "Today God helped me realise my dream," Dore said, after the wedding in the region of Galguduud. The bride's family said she was "happy with her new husband". Dore said he and his bride - who is young enough to be his great-great-grand-daughter - were from the same village in Somalia and that he had waited for her to grow up to propose. "I didn't force her, but used my experience to convince her of my love; and then we agreed to marry," the groom said. Goat-skin documents The BBC's Mohammed Olad Hassan in Mogadishu says the marriage in the town of Guriceel is being described by Somali historians as the first of its kind in the Horn of Africa nation for more than a century. Dore told the BBC he was born in Dhusamareeb in central Somalia in 1897 - and has a traditional birth certificate, written on goat skin by his father. Our correspondent says he has an interesting history - in 1941 he joined the British colonial forces as a soldier for 10 years and then served as a police officer after Somalia won independence in 1960. Dore's oldest son is 80 years old and three of his wives have died. He says he hopes his new bride will give him more children. "It is a blessing to have someone you love to take care of you," he said. [/b] |
