News update: 61 yr old woman marries 8 yr old boy
Eight-year-old Sanele Masilela who got ‘married’ to a 61-year-old Helen Shabangu in Tshwane, South Africa has said he now feels like a husband a month after the union.
The ceremony performed back in February is not legally binding and was just a ritual prompted by a conversation the schoolboy said he had had with his dead grandfather.
‘The day was great and it was exactly what I had imagined it would be like,’ said Sanele.
‘My friends thought it was really funny that I was getting married but I do now feel like a husband.’
The eight-year-old has also revealed the method his deceased ancestor used to contact him.
He added: ‘My grandfather contacted me through a picture of my mother’s wedding.
‘We have a special bond because I am named after him.
‘He said he had seen the picture and felt sad that he had never been able to have a white wedding of his own so he asked me to get married. I chose Helen because I love her.’
The ‘husband and wife’ do not live together but apparently Helen is sometimes invited to have dinner with the boy and his family.

This is absurd, sin, unrighteousness, calamity, child abuse, insult to the body of Christ, unacceptable, end-time, unholy act just like what Yerima is doing in Nigeria, the law Obama is implementing in America and the whole world, women getting married to animals.
The holy bible says marriage should be bw a man & woman not woman & boy, not woman & animal, not woman/ladies & sex machine, not man & man, not even boy & girl, not man & girl,
Whole earth beware and seek the God's face. Watch & pray.Someone define GOD as Generator, Originator and Destroyer !!! He has power to do all things.
