EP71: Ugandan Imam's wife is a man - a podcast by Nana Kwame

A Muslim cleric and chief Imam of a mosque in Ugandan has mistakenly married a man thinking  he was a woman. The Iman who confided in another Imam about not being able to consummate their marriage. He claimed that on their wedding night the wife said she was on her menses. 

The true identity of the wife was revealed when their neighbours accused her of stealing. When police arrested her, they found out she was actually a man dressed in women's clothes.

The Imam said he wasn't aware he was married to a man but that has not gone down well with most people online. On social media, many Ugandans have mocked the imam as a suspected homosexual who is not being truthful.

In Ugandan, homosexuality can carry jail terms as part of the punishment therefore it is a big deal should the Imam be found to have been a homosexual.

The Wahaala Boys break down what really is the story here about the Imam and his wife.
