A shocking and unconfirmed incident has been reported in Nwoya involving a young lady who allegedly suffered a mental breakdown after refusing to marry the man who had fully financed her university education.
Reports suggest the man paid for the entirety of the lady’s university studies with the expectation that she would agree to marry him upon graduation. When the lady refused to honor this implied agreement, the dispute escalated, reportedly leading to the alleged mental breakdown.
The incident has sharply divided public opinion online, with users weighing in on the complexities of financial support and marital obligations.
@Lily_Baaa emphasized autonomy: “I will never eat any single coin for a man whom I’m not interested in.”
@MuhamadiMatovu offered advice to women: “This is a serious concern. My advice to young women is not to depend on a man to pay your school fees or support you with the expectation of marriage. Circumstances can change, and it may lead to regret.”
