A self styled prophet from Johanne Marange Apostolic Church
has sent his sixth wife packing because she breached church rules by delivering
her fifth baby at hospital.
The woman had complications and had to deliver by
caesarean.
Cuthbert Masembure (45) said he had to part ways with his
wife because she breached church rules which do not allow members to get
treatment from hospitals.
On Tuesday last week Masembure was dragged to court by his
wife Nyaradzo Makuvari (37), who now stays at her parents’ home for
maintenance.
However, Murambinda Resident Magistrate Dennis Mangosi was
left in a dilemma after he found himself dealing with a maintenance case where
the defendant has five different wives and a total of 18 children.
Masembure told Mangosi that paying maintenance for three
children involved in the claim is difficult as he has 15 other children sired
with five different wives. He left the court in stitches when he said he looked
forward to more children.
Masembure married Makuvari who was the wife of his late
brother.
Makuvari was claiming $100 dollars per child and Mangosi
ordered that Masembure pays $95 for each child. Masvingo Mirror
