"I don't even know how you did that."

"Ssemwanga introduced me," Zari went on.

"It was public knowledge, he introduced me but we didn't get married," she continued.

"Rest His Soul in Peace; He was a great person. But Lutaaya is the first to give me a wedding ring."

Zari and Ivan Semwanga's introduction ceremony was held in Munyonyo, Kampala in 2011.

Zari 'charged' Semwanga, who had initially brought 100 cows as dowry, 300, saying each 100 was for a child. They had three kids together.

Shakib Lutaaya first hinted at marrying Zari in 2022, according to the latter's recent talk.

"I think last year, jokingly, my husband said, I'm gonna marry you," said Zari.

"And that's why people always say, be careful what you manifest. Watch your tongue. He was like, I'm gonna marry you.

She said after Shakib made the promise, she also took to Snapchat to share the news, but as a joke.
