About this document
Chapter 4 - Marriage (Final) by Gredward Kaches Folotiya is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Marriage is a foundational institution for families in Zambia, governed by either civil law under the Marriage Act or customary law. While most Zambians marry under customary law, many also incorporate civil marriage elements, emphasizing family consent and the payment of lobola. The Marriage Act recognizes both types of marriages, but civil marriage is strictly monogamous, contrasting with the polygynous nature of customary marriages.
