A Harare couple’s six-year marriage has collapsed after
failing to bear a child.
The husband Onward Chasaka has decided to marry another
wife and the matter has since spilled at the Harare Civil Court he is accusing
his wife Blessing Musindo of failing to conceive.
He is seeking a protection order against her habit of
stalking him as he wants to settle with new lover. “It is six years since we
got married but we have no child. I told her, I cannot live without a child but
she keeps on saying God’s time is the best.
“I cannot rely on words; now I need a baby. I am ready to
settle with my new lover but she is in the habit of stalking me and insults me
whenever she finds me with my new lover.
“She threatens to bewitch me so that I would not marry my
new girlfriend. She is in the habit of visiting my new girlfriend’s place of
residence and insulting her saying she is a prostitute,” said Onward.
Blessing told the court that they were not divorced. “He is
still my husband but he wants to divorce me since I am failing to bear a child.
It is not my will but he cannot divorce me in such manner.
“We acquired property and a residential stand together so
he cannot deny me access to that house. He must formally divorce me then we do
property sharing. I was stalking him since I believed he was still my husband,”
said Blessing.
Presiding magistrate Gladys Moyo granted the protection
order in favour of Onward.
