A Busia Catholic priest has challenged men to devise ways and means of matching women whom he says have more life expectancy than men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Father Collins Mambo, says this trend is worrisome needing urgent attention. He further warns that women will have no men to marry them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Addressing mourners during the burial of a Busia fresh fish supplier, Fredrick Juma Marenya, 41, at Khubwira village in Bunyala Central Ward on Saturday, Fr. Mambo said the fact that many women were in attendance was a confirmation that their male counterparts are becoming an endangered species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“There is no doubt that many men have opted to abandon their matrimonial responsibilities by absenting themselves from their homes, thus rendering their wives “widows,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He noted that some women have also cultivated the culture of drinking too much alcohol, thus leaving their children with no tender care, telling them to stop such culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The priest’s assertion of women’s long life expectancy came to pass with Nyanya Enjelika Anyuka Abatasa from Amoni village in Lukolis buried aged 103 years. Abatasa was the grandmother to Busia County Enforcement Officer, Scovia Amoit Ochebo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
