South African president marries fourth wife
South African
President Jacob Zuma married his longtime fiancee in a private ceremony at his
rural home, making her one of his four current wives.
Zuma, 70, tied the
knot with Bongi Ngema in a traditional ceremony Friday in the town of Nkandla.
It is the sixth
marriage overall for the polygamous president - - one of his wives died while
another one divorced him.
The president
practices the Zulu tradition, which allows polygamy. While legal in South
Africa, polygamy is losing popularity with the younger generation in the
continent, where it is still practiced in some cultures.
Zuma -- who has 21
children -- embraces his culture, said Mac Maharaj, a government spokesman.

Earthquake off the Indonesian island of Sumatra
Earthquake off the Indonesian island of Sumatra
this week
The powerful undersea
earthquake off the Indonesian island of Sumatra this week was a once in 2,000
years event, and although it resulted in only a few deaths, it increases the
risks of a killer quake in the region, a leading seismologist said.
Wednesday's 8.6
magnitude quake and a powerful aftershock were "strike-slip" quakes
and the largest of that type recorded, Kerry Sieh, director of the Earth
Observatory of Singapore, told Reuters.
"It's a really
an exceptionally large and rare event," he said.
"Besides it
being the biggest strike-slip earthquake ever recorded, the aftershock is the
second biggest as far as we can tell," said Sieh, who has studied the
seismically active, and deadly, fault zones around Sumatra for years.
