A 103-year-old woman, Maryam, has revealed that she has remained a virgin all her life, still holding onto the hope of marrying a mzungu (white) man who showed interest in her 75 years ago.
According to Maryam, she met the missionary in 1950, and he assured her that he would return to marry her and take her abroad. Believing in his promise, she has rejected all other suitors over the years, fearing that accepting another man would displease her long-anticipated husband.
Despite the decades that have passed, Maryam insists she is still waiting for the man who once stole her heart. Her story has sparked reactions, with many admiring her loyalty and patience, while others question whether the missionary ever intended to return.
Whether fate will reunite her with her lost love remains uncertain, but Maryam’s unwavering faith in the promise made to her has become a remarkable tale of hope and devotion.
*At this point, she deserves a Guinness World Record and a refund for wasted time!*
