Mr T's Nuptials





Mr T heads the Pre-tertiary division at our school and is an interesting guy. An Ethiopian, he has spent the last 28 years in England. He has returned to Addis with a brand new Ethiopian wife and now mother to his 3 children, and she has at least three kids of her own, and is pregnant again!

Their wedding ws a very extravagant affair in Addis with some 700+ guests, limousines, a couple of photographers and a fifteen course banquet. But even in Ethiopia, such stuff doesn’t come cheap. Indeed a whopping Birr 700,000 or almost US$40,000!!!

Despite their recent lavish nuptials, Ted is back in Addis with the youngest at just three months, and his wife in London. She will visit Addis at Christmas.
