When he got married the first time his brothers had to testify that he was who he claimed to be. All that time he did have a passport, drivers licence, etc.:confused:. When we got married the testimonials had vanished, another administrative error. Another civil servant managed to find the original approval for the first marriage, just a week before our wedding. My sister-in-law was born in Uganda, another place where birth certificates disappear (Idi Amin). She also managed to get proof of who she was just before her wedding.
