Ugandan Men Marry

News

Uganda-flagTwo Ugandan men have claimed to be the first gay Ugandan couple to legally marry, having tied the knot in Sweden last month.

Lawrence Kaala and Jimmy Sswerwadda exchanged vows on January 26, which is the two year anniversary of the death of David Kato, one of Uganda’s most influential LGBT activists.

Sweden’s QX editor has described the wedding as a moment in history, ‘not only for the lucky two, but for the LGBT community and movement in Uganda’.

Both men were forced to flee the country based on their sexual orientation.
