Ugandan Man With 120 Wives,102 Children ,568 Grandchildren, Says He’s Done With Child Bearing
He now fears sneezing near his wives — because that’s how baby number 103 might start.

After turning his house into a full-blown secondary school with 102 children, an Ugandan man has finally retired from “ministry of multiplication.”
Why? Because garri don cost and even the calculator is tired of counting school fees.
The man confessed: I love children, but the electricity bill alone is quite exhausting, I don’t know whether my children are eating or drinking the electricity as it finishes daily
He reportedly held a “final family meeting” where he begged his wives to “rest small” and even considered printing “We’re Full” on their gate.
He now fears sneezing near his wives — because that’s how baby number 103 might start.
