A former cobbler who has been dubbed ‘Uganda’s Ugliest Man’ has become a father for the eighth time. Godfrey Baguma, 47, who is believed to suffer from a rare, unknown medical condition, and his wife Kate Namanda, 30, welcomed a baby girl.
Baguma
won the less-than-favourable title in 2002, after he entered the competition to
make money for his cash-strapped family.
Before
his marriage to Kate, Godfrey had two children with his first wife –
but their marriage came to an end when he caught her cheating with another man.
Describing how he wooed
Kate initially, Godfrey told KFM: ‘I stayed with her
four years before her people knew where she was. I didn’t want them to see me
until we had a child because they would definitely advise her to leave me.
‘She
left me when she was six months pregnant but I think she later accepted her fate
because she came back two months later’.
‘I told her that I didn’t
choose to look the way I do and that if she feels I am a burden, she is free to
leave me’.
The
couple got married in 2013, and now have six children together – after their
first child was born in 2008.
