Lulu Jemimah's said her parents continually pressured her about marriage
Daily Mail reported that Lulu was fed up with her parents always disturbing her about marriage, which was the last thing on her mind.
Lulu, who was doing a master's in creative writing at that time, said she was only committed to her goal of being an academic. In her words:
''I have a strong passion in life and I am committed to achieving my goals of becoming an academic.
''But all my family wanted to ask me was when I planned to get married - which is very important back in Uganda - followed by when I would be having children and starting a family."
