A lady from Tsholotsho in Matabeleland North region is living in terror after her husband’s suspected lover allegedly threatened to call witch-doctors to bewitch her in a suspected love triangle drama that went violent.
Awakhiwe Ncube (22) of South Africa claims she married Desmond Ncube of Bambadzi, Bulilima District, Plumtree in March last year, while Siduduzile Mankatha also claims the guy is her husband.
According to reports, the “couple” had a quarrel in December of the same year, which led to Desmond rekindling his romance with his supposed ex-lover Mankatha, who is now threatening to deal with Awakhiwe by supernatural methods.
Awakhiwe told B-Metro that she tried to convince Mankatha to leave her husband but was unsuccessful since she maintained that Desmond was also her husband.
She said Mankatha began sending her threatening texts before branding her a “witch” on several social media networks.
“I discovered messages on my husband’s phone indicating that Mankatha was cheating on him.” I then attempted to follow up by calling Mankatha and attempting to persuade her to leave my husband, but she refused to entertain me so that we could settle the situation.
“She claims that my spouse was also hers. She then began threatening me. “Ufuna ukuchitha umuzi wami (she wants to ruin my marriage),” Awakhiwe lamented.
She adds: “This is my second year in this marriage but I do not have peace because of this woman. Mankatha is a threat to my marriage. When I was pregnant, she said I will give birth to a goblin and I ended up having a miscarriage”.
Awakhiwe said she was now living in fear and was also worried over her character which is being assassinated on social media platforms.
“This woman is tormenting me, she is a threat to my marriage,” a tormented Awakhiwe said.
Contacted for a comment, Mankatha refused to entertain all the questions directed to her.
She said all questions should be directed to Desmond.
“I am not her husband, talk to Desmond,” she pithily said.
Desmond said he broke up with Awakhiwe because of her unfaithfulness.
He said they never got married but instead they were just cohabiting until he decided to rekindle his relationship with Mankatha after Awakhiwe allegedly cheated on him.
He also denied the claims that they have a child together.
“I just know that there was something like a miscarriage which happened before she started cheating on me. So I just decided to rekindle my relationship with Mankatha.
“I have two children with Mankatha. This one is my real wife,” said Desmond.
When prodded to comment Desmond who would not entertain further questions threatened this reporter saying his marital life was none of his business.
