Against All Odds! Lovers Weds On Hospital Bed At University Teaching Hospital

In Lusaka Zambia yesterday, a young man who was two weeks ago involved in a road accident and lost one leg wedded his fiancée while on his hospital bed at the University Teaching Hospital.

Suzyo Muzuri 28 married Diniwe Bowa 27 yesterday morning at a wedding service that was conducted by Bethel Christian Center Bishop Andrew Mwenda in Ward 11 at UTH. The couple exchanged marriage vows in the presence of their families, close friends and patients not by design but circumstances.

Mr Muzuri, an accountant at National Milling Company, wedded Ms Bowa at UTH because he was involved in an accident that resulted in him losing his right leg two weeks ago. Instead of rescheduling the wedding, the couple went ahead and tied the knot as their families and friends witnessed the emotional ceremony, which brought the entire ward to a stand-still.
