He is marrying a Kenyanafter short meet, should I be suspicious?

[estatigua]

I am not sure if I am even in the right place but am desperate for some help. I have an Uncle who has been widowed for 9 years, he is a little mentaly challenged. He met a Kenyan lady from Nairobi on a dating site, talked to her for a couple of months, went out to meet her for 5 days last week & now tells us he is going out in April to marry her there!He tried to get her to come here to see him but she would only come if they married & started asking him for a lot of documentation like his birth certificate & his wife's death certificate, I persuaded him it was all too quick & not to send & told him the best way would be for her to get a visa & come here for a visit first, now he is going there to marry her. I know I am being cautious but you hear such stories & as he is a little challenged I am protective, he is a 17 year old in a 64 year old body. Can anyone help me & tell me what is expected of him when he goes out there to marry her & what his rights are? I won't have him deceived. This lady paid for everything while he was out there for his 5 days & had him live in her accomodation (we had been told he was in a hotel but there was no contact with us even though it was arranged) & that made me concerned as I feel she has put a lot into the fact she can get him to marry her as when she heard that he wouldn't just have her here & marry her in April she went ballistic! I want him to be happy but need to know this is going to be ok.....Ye Gods! no one can tell me this can they.....I am at my wits end.

lindylou, please ignore my post, i found your reply ok. i was just being the plum of the week and not looking properly.

estatigua, the immigration dept ,as has been mentioned, is a good idea. they may also know of people or organisations that can help you & your uncle.another thought is magazines like "take a break"often have stories like yours in them so may have contacts & ideas.
